Is it from the positive or negative battery terminal and then splits into the two?
If the positive side, the heavy gauge black one should go to the starter motor and the lighter gauge white one goes to the fuse box terminal 1A (on the underside of the fuse box?) which should be connected to the fusible link area and one side of several of the larger Amp fuses.
If its the cable for the negative side of battery then one goes to the engine earth point (may need to confirm but I think is a bolt at the rear of the head or could be lower on the engine block) and the other to the mudguard/body earth point beside the battery.
