The main reason I'd like to do that is to get a nice fitting battery @ a much lower cost than what Honda wants for theirs. I'd also feel secure using a motorcycle trickle charger on it too.

Oddly enough, that's exactly what the stock battery is..... a motorcycle battery with car terminals..... So, go for it!!
