Hey boys,


Any recommendations for a OEM style hose clamp pliers (or whether it is even a 
good idea)? My Aprilia came with the flat band OEM style hose clamps, and after 
changing the coolant, the shiny screw-style hose clamps I used to put it back 
together look pretty awful. 


Anyone with experience installing the flat-band style clamps? 

thanks,

doug
