I hve jus brought a Honda VFR800 VTech from a dealer and there was no handbook / manual. They have delivered the bike and the battery is dead. I don't know how to get to the battery as I have no manual. Help please.

The book doesn't tell you much beyond the typical stuff but without it you won't even know how to set the clock for example. You'll want the physical manual sitting in your bike since it contains stuff like whether there's a tip-over sensor, don't settle for a PDF. Pop the seat off and take a look: if it's not there you should demand it. As the new owner you should have been given a freaking owner's manual -- that dealership is treating you poorly. If they won't give it to you go to Honda and complain about the dealership, and they might send you a manual for free.
The battery is right next to the place where you pop the seat with the key. There should be a plastic cover that hides the battery from the side of the VFR, pull that off by pulling the two plastic knobs that look like screw heads. There is also a simple hold-down mechanism involving a huge rubber band and a hinged metal arm. The battery is physically smaller than most other motorcycle batteries but a comparable charge (12Ah?) so the OEM version costs upwards of $80. I believe it is a gel cell, justifying some of that cost. Normal charging requires around 1 amp over a long period of time, aftermarket batteries allow quick (4 amp) charge but I don't know about the OEM version.

Type in "1991 Honda Accord owners manual" in google search. You'll find something.

To get to the battery, remove the seat. The seat lock is on the left side, right near the hump in the seat.
