On most of the bikes I have worked on you remove the seat and it's under there somewhere? just remove the terminals and the battery strap and lift it out, can I ask why you want to remove it and charge it over winter? Can't you just charge it where it is?

PS DON'T use a car charger for you bike battery you will cook it as it has to be charged at a lot lower voltage than a car battery, sorry if you already know this just dotting the i's and crossing the t's

Bike batteries usually have to be charged at about 1.5 amps and cars at 8 Amps I think.

You could leave it connected and just run it once a month?

For reference a basic rule is to charge a battery at 10% of it's Ah rating. So for a 15Ah battery would take 1.5Ah. Less charging current is perfectly fine, it will just take longer to charge.
