I haven't done a '15 (have done earlier models out the  back) but the manual says to take it out the left side of the bike.

7. Position jack across lower frame to support rear of
motorcycle. Slide wooden blocks beneath the crankcase
to support the weight of the engine and transmission
assembly.
8. Remove rear fork. See 2.22 REAR FORK.
9. Disconnect vehicle speed sensor (VSS). See
7.22 VEHICLE SPEED SENSOR (VSS).
10. Disconnect neutral switch. See 7.24 NEUTRAL SWITCH,
Removal.
11. Remove battery negative ring terminal from ground post
at top of transmission case.
12. Move aside the harness that terminates at the O2 sensor,
starter solenoid, neutral switch and VSS.
13. Mark splines on shift arm and shift shaft to help with
assembly. Remove shift arm from shift shaft.
14. In a crosswise pattern, remove four fasteners that connect
transmission to engine.
NOTE
See Figure 6-57. Do not use a hammer to remove transmission.
If the transmission sticks or binds on the ring dowels, gently
pry away from crankcase using the pry point.
15. Move transmission rearward until two ring dowels in lower
flange are free of crankcase. Remove transmission case
from left side of the motorcycle.

No need to pull the trans case. Just pull the side door and the gearset comes out of the case. Then you can service the main gear bearing.

Dont forget the top cover to pull shift forks and drum,and the  race on the primary side. if the primary is off you will have it out in less than an hour.

There's a need if the spun bearing damaged the case.
