Simply follow the heavy gauge lead from the positive battery terminal to its conclusion.

If you look in down by the drivers leg on the right side of the bike, you should be able to see the end of the starter. It's on top of the gearbox. There is a thick starter cable to be taken off, then there are two small headed bolts facing towards you, you take them out and the starter pulls straight towards you. It fits into a round hole on the case with an "o" ring, so they can be a bit of a tight pull. After it's out you need to clean all the dirt that will have accumulated under the starter before refitting the starter, otherwise it's hard to get it back in the hole nicely.
