Because they are in fact torque to yield bolts. The Service Manual calls them screws but that is besides the point. It states clearly and equivocally in bold print to discard the old bolts and proceed with the installation with a new set .
interesting, I must have missed that when I remove/installed mine. My service manual simply gave a torque spec, and it was actually a lot lower than I would have expected it to be. Anyway I reused mine, but if the SM says to discard, I'd listen to it.

First rule of thumb for Harley ownership: always make sure run/kill switch is not set to "OFF" so you don't look like an idiot trying to start your bike.
Second rule of thumb: NEVER reuse pulley or rotor bolts.
