Using these hose clips is easy. Just place the clip around the hose where you need it and tighten it properly. Make sure it's secure but don't over - tighten as it might damage the hose. When it comes to maintenance, these clips are made of high - quality stainless steel, so they can resist corrosion well. However, it's a good idea to check them regularly for any signs of wear or loosening, especially if your motorcycle is often used in harsh environments. If you notice any issues, you can use the 12 - month warranty to get a replacement. Keep in mind that these clips are designed to fit the 1984 - 1996 Kawasaki GPZ 900 R, as well as all AS3 Performance and OEM hoses.
