crappy hose clamps

What is the deal with these "Clic" clamps? This is the second coolant leak & I already replaced the one one the fuel line. Why can't they use proper hose clamps like the rest of the world?

I ran it up to 90c on the bench & the top one started to leak. Note the bottom one was changed by the dealer at the first service. Stainless gear clamps are on the way...

your bike needs a good dusting:nana

at least its an easy fix, saying that would it not be covered under warranty?
 
They are cheaper than jubilee clamps.....go figure :rant just replace them with decent SS ones....job done
 
There will be lots of time for cleaning - we had our first dusting of snow & its darn cold outside right now...
The clamps are covered under warranty but its less of a pain to just change them all myself. I'm more concerned about the ones on the oil lines...
