How do you connect a car battery cable to a battery not in the car?
It would be essentially the same as connecting a battery in the car, except with longer cables. You would have to use jumper cables to extend the car battery cables. Be sure to follow ALL safety procedures. Do NOT let anyone or anything metal touch anything else except where you make the connections. Do not touch the metal connectors themselves. I assume there is no battery in the car. I will call the battery that is not in the car the "external battery". First connect the positive ("+", usually red) jumper cable to the positive car battery cable, & then the other end of that jumper cable to the positive external battery terminal. Then do the same with the negative ("-", usually black) car battery cable & jumper cable. The last thing you connect should be the far end of the negative jumper cable to the negative terminal of the external battery. When you are ready to disconnect the external battery from these cables, do so in reverse order, starting with disconnecting the negative ("-", usually black) jumper cable from the negative external battery terminal.

You can use a car battery or another fully charged motorcycle battery for jumping but first you should ask yourself a question: why is the bike battery without power? If the battery is old, then there is no option but changing it as jumping is an emergency procedure, not a permanent solution. Next, get jumper cables. Connect the red cables to the positive poles and then connect the black or blue cables to the negative poles. Always connect to the jumper battery before connecting to the bike battery. Now, leave the cables in place for a minute or two, then try starting the bike. You will normally be able to start the engine soon unless there is a mechanical or other problem preventing its start.
