You have to very carefully cut them off mate, there is no other way

Carefully file or grind the area shown, pull the hose out and the rest of the crimp should just lift off.

When I wanted Aeroquip oil lines on my 750 special back in 1982 I sent the complete lines off to Goodridge & left them to cut off the old fabric covered lines & to make some new lines up

Bikes...they're in the blood.
