You wouldn't be able to find a battery on their web site for an antique machine.
What you could do is measure the dimensions of your current battery and try to find a match if you're really interested in a Shorei.
I'm using a Yuasa YTX9-BS in both of my vintage bikes and they work great.
I asked Yuasa about using a modern maint-free battery in such an old machine before I bought one, and they said, "Sure, as long as the charging system is up to the task, it will work fine."

Must admit I did not know they made batteries until now
