Rear disc removal noob question

Hi all,

As you can guess from the title im looking to replace the rear disc but ive hit a bit of a brick wall of how best to remove the hub.
Ive got the bike on paddock stands but the problem with that is i cant remove the hub nut as the paddock stand goes through the hub. Its on the paddock stand so I could remove the rear wheel.
Anyone got any ideas how best to overcome this?

Thanks buddy,

I was having a chat with earlier and i was wondering if there were any other exotic methods. Thats cool.
I'll look into getting one at some point

axle stands on the pegs or under the rearmost frame/engine area

Luckily Tony is lending his ABBA stand until I can get the funds together but thank you for the suggestion.

Knowing my luck it would fall over with me under it :grin:
