A screew  it..im doing it today..I'll show you how easily a rear tire swop is on a indian ...compared to a Harley...

Step one, remove panniers and side cover...I'll add pictures later...think it can actually be done without removing the panniers but I'll clean the muflers wyll I'm at it...

Step two..remove caliper , and linkage pin so to un- couple the suspension linkage..pin held in place by a circle clip...make sure to mark the adjuster for the rear to get it has close has possible when reassembly..

Removing circle clip and use a bolt from one of engine side cover to screew in the pin to give something to grab to...

Removing pin...jack underneath the wheel to take the pressure off...and voila...easy access to the axle saft and nut...

So you're probably thinking what's the big difference from a Harley...no need to mess around with the muflers, with rusted clamps and are a pain in the arse to remove at times...if only Harley had compitent engineers...lol.
