It's a "power sports" battery and does not have automotive-style posts on it, but post conversion kits are available and inexpensive.

The only real negative is that it will run down quicker if a power drain is on it when the engine is not running - so that might be a concern. I've made a habit of leaving a trickle charger on it when parked at home - a good idea for any battery in terms of extending its service life.

It's completely sealed, so no risk of leakage, and can be mounted on it's side if you wanted to (mine is mounted upright, using a custom holder that I made).

The Odyssey is a is a great battery, I use one in my plane and have for years. But why would you reduce weight in the front of a 930?
