Welcome!
Have you checked every fuse in the fuse box? Under the left side cover.
Are you sure the "new" battery is good? What is the voltage at rest?
Expand on the "tune up", what work was completed? By who?
Any after market parts on the bike?
Here are a couple of things to check out.

If you have any type of electrical issue, have your battery load tested before you do anything else. Any auto parts store will test it for free.

Check your ground cable from the battery to the engine
Also check the battery connections are tight and the bolts havnt bottomed out on the battery , a common problem when replacing the battery
Installing star washers in between the cable and battery remedy's this and gives you a better connection
