Which side is positive?

I removed my battery tender to trade my S40 in for a new Triumph. Now I need to charge the battery. It's low and won't crank the engine. Is the "passenger" side the positive terminal?

The right side of the bike is the positive connector.

Thanks Norm. I thought so. I put my multimeter on the battery and with the positive lead on the right side it showed a positive voltage. I was just making sure.

Best way to tell, is put one wire of tester to frame and touch the other lead to each battery terminal.
