Of the many bikes I have owned - old, new, big, small - I have never had a battery that worked poorly. They either worked or did not work. And I have never watered my bike battery, as they typically don't need it if they are healthy. Your SLA battery should work brilliantly. You can buy lithium motorcycle batteries now too.....
Ryland: all bike charging systems are crude. The flywheel A/C generator is always charging full blast and when the voltage reaches the regulating point, it shorts to ground inside the rectifier/regulator. A huge waste of energy. This is why the rectifier/regulator has massive fins and are usually just below the temperature of the sun (especially when you ride with the revs high), and also why they are the one thing that seems to continuously fail on a motorcycle.
