As someone already mentioned pull the fuse going to your amplifier and eliminate the "new" work to see the problem goes away. Taking out whatever was just "worked" on is always my first troubleshooting step.
I appreciate all the input. What is weird is that the bike started yesterday when I tuned the front amp and made some initial settings on the new amp, and made sure it was pulling voltage. The only difference between then and now is the speakers were attached. I'm heading out to buy a battery charger, and a tender is on the way from Amazon.

So, this is where everyone gets to call me dumbass. I'm at work now, and can't verify, but I'm pretty sure I forgot to reconnect the fuel line. That would explain why it wouldn't start even with a jump.

Been there done that. It does help to walk away for a while and retrace your steps

I have done that more than a couple times brother.
Just make sure u get a pig tail hooked up to ur battery and hero that sucker charged. Jacking with audio in the garage without a good charger will **** rape ur electrical system.
The lil Schumacher Charger I mentioned in a different thread has been very good to me.

Wasn't worse, but you were right...it wasn't the battery. It was my dumb *** forgetting things.
