I was thinking about the first time I charge it after I have filled it with acid, if I needed a special charger the first time.

After some googling the conclusion is NO :)

You have to be careful with kz650's. I see a lot of sellers listing a battery that is just slightly too tall. It will work perfectly but your seat will contact + and - on the bigger bumps which, of course, makes for badness. The situation can be remedied with some heavy rubber covers over the battery posts. It seems like the correct size battery is not available from many manufacturers, so they have substituted the nearest size that "almost" works,
