If they don't need to come off, I wouldn't take them off. Maybe someone more experienced on them can comment though. I'm talking theoretically.

I've removed my own tyres before on numerous bikes with nothing more than yokes and 2x4's with sprocket and rotors on with out issues.
I've also seen it done and have never seen them removed either.

I'm not sure that removing and re-torquing those pulley bolts is a great idea. The torque needs to be in a specific range to be tight enough to not get loose, but not so tight that you strip threads. The loosening and retightening affects the "real" torque being applied.

Yeah I have never removed sprockets or rotors either for any tire changes before.

FWIW guys, the service manual says that the pulley bolts cannot be reused.
They are cheap and the stealerships always seem to have them in stock. Buy a new set if you ever need to remove and reinstall/swap the pulley.
Having said that, I've never bothered to measure the bolts before/after being torqued into a wheel..... hhmmmmm... might be an interesting subject to check into...

Blackline Tank Console Breakout 2016
Happy 4th of July everybody.
I want to change the console on my 2016 BO. Already checked the great instructions and part lists here. I just want to make sure it still works for the 2016 as well. Im asking because I tried to get the edge cut brake and clutch levers and they don't fit for 2016. Did anybody already change the console on a 2016 ? Or are the parts are still the same ?
Thanks
Mario
