If you are a *GOOD* person and maintain the electrolyte level and refrain from heavily discharging and quick charging the battery, it'll last FAR longer.
Me? Arrive home, throw down the kickstand to kill the engine, go into the house to have lunch. 'Bout two hours later wife calls -- she forgot to pack a sandwich in her lunch, would I mind? So I get sandwich, hop on the bike, go to turn on the key -- oops! It is already on. Hit the started, waaa waaa gasp.... Pop off the tool cover, clip a lead to the terminal, ground the other lead, switch on, switch to 10 amp charge, count to 30, fire up the Savage, remove clips, deliver wife's lunch. Probably knocked a year off the battery's lifespan.
