The calipers stick into the profile of the rim, at a bare minimum you would have to remove one, better to do both because of trying to fit the wheel back on without damaging the speedometer drive pickup is easier with both out of the way.
I had the bike on the centerstand and had my wife hold the back down (I had the rear off at the time) while I pulled the wheel out, then I sat the forks on a milk crate while I ran to Cycle Gear to have the tires changed. I also put the calipers back on with 1 bolt each to relieve the strain on the brake lines while I was gone.
Not the best way of doing it, but it will work until I buy or build some proper stands.
