Dead cell in the battery or something is on pulling power from the battery. If it is a dead cell the battery must be replaced.
A stuck relay in the car can drain the battery. A dead cell in the battery itself will drain the battery overnight. If this is the case the battery must be replaced as there is no way to fix it. To find out disconnect the negative battery cable for around 8 hours. If the battery goes dead it has a dead cell. If not then something is draining the battery. Anyplace that sells batteries can test the battery for you.
Many motorcycle batteries are on the side of the cycle directly under the seat. They're often covered by a removable plate that either snaps off or screws off. The battery is sometimes located directly under the seat itself, and the seat must be removed for access. Locations change by make and model so check your owner's manual or poke around a bit if you can't find your battery.
