Lug bolts are normally hammered or drawn into place with the use of the wheel. They are removed the same. Remove the wheel, you may have to set the rotor in such a position that allows for the lug removal. Usually a very small gap allows for it. Take a good hammer and carefully pound it in till it pops out the back. Take your new one and push it in than tap it a few times till enough thread is showing that it can be drawn in all the way with the wheel installed.

Lug nut bolt broke while trying to get tire off how do you remove it?
You may have to get a nut splitter, a grinder, or a hammer and chisel to get nut off and then have stud replaced. Hopefully the splines in the drum haven't been torn out and a new stud can be pressed in. If not, you might be running a lug nut short (which is not at all wise) or you'll have to come up with a new drum. Auto recyclers live for challenges like this.

Do motorcycles have lug nuts?
I will answer this question based on the many dirt bike tires in which I have changed. When I remove the wheel, there is a nut on one side of the bike which needs to be removed; after removing the nut, the axle will slide out the opposite side of the machine from the nut. I usually refer to this nut as an axle nut rather than a lug nut.
