all you need to do is remove the 2 caliper bolts found on the rear of the caliper. Remove the caliper and hang it up with a piece of wire or cable tie.
They are located here, only pic I have showing location

and remove these two screws and the rotor will come off

you need to clean the disc with brake cleaner to remove the protective coating they apply to prevent rusting.
then see my build thread on how to remove brake lines in the section where I swapped the brakes over, not sure what page its on.
Bleed the brakes and follow bedding in instructions that came with your rotors
