The turn signals and dash just quit while cruising on my Monster 796, The battery is from when I bought it in 12'
It died a couple times when I went to start it so I threw it on a tender for the past month or so and it started immediately.. Suggestions? [bang]

Gaspar, Melchior and Balthasar kicked me out of the band..... they said I didnt fit the image they were trying to project. 

So I went solo.  -Me

Some people call 911..... some people are 911

Maybe worth checking the headlight connector at the steering head for burned out terminals? That's been reported on "new" Monsters as well. Just a thought...

Fuse?

this happened to me a couple times. if its a fuse then check the connections at reg/rec and especially at the coil for your vertical head.  they mount to the frame near the shock and can get loose then ground to the frame and short.
