As a rule, I like to charge batteries off the bike, or at least with the seat up (like on my '78 Honda). It's a bit of a pain, and maybe not so needed with sealed batteries. With 'maintainable' batteries (the kind you had to add distilled water to), they could 'boil' a bit and theoretically make an acid mess. When I put our bikes up for winter, I remove the batteries and charge them in the house (sitting in plastic bins).
Again, I'm not saying that's the case with yours, but you might as well learn where and how to remove and install your battery. You'll have to replace it someday, no matter what.
