Try this:
# View existing remotes
git remote -v
# origin https://github.com/user/repo.git (fetch)
# origin https://github.com/user/repo.git (push)
# Change the 'origin' remote's URL
git remote set-url origin https://github.com/user/repo2.git
# Verify new remote URL
git remote -v
# origin https://github.com/user/repo2.git (fetch)
# origin https://github.com/user/repo2.git (push)

Use this:
git remote set-url origin git://new.location
Alternatively, open .git/config, look for [remote "origin"], and edit the url = line.
You can check it worked by examining the remotes:
git remote -v
# origin git://new.location (fetch)
# origin git://new.location (push)
