Can't see you have excessive drain there... I have both headlights on the whole time the bike's running (and heated grips in winter), the generator copes ok. A gear indicator won't take any current to speak of. The alarm might cause a problem, it doesn't need to take much current, the fact that it's running for perhaps hundreds of hours without the battery getting a charge can flatten it.
It depends on the way the bike's used. If it goes for weeks without use and then doesn't spend much time at mid to high revs when it does see action, then the battery will suffer.
