No, its not a motorcycle battery; they are never sealed, it's the law.

The battery we use for our robots is, in fact, a motorcycle battery. I'm not sure what bike(s) use that particular one, but I have a motorcycle and a scooter, both of which use sealed batteries like the ones used by our robots. My scooter, a Honda Helix uses a somewhat smaller one and my Suzuki SV650 uses one similar in size to the robots.
