This Orange County Choppers Premium Speed Grip is a decent steering wheel cover.Please note this is made out of rubber and synthetic materials. This is obvious when you look inside the cover, though the exterior surface is a leather-like material.For the price it feels quite well-constructed.The OCC logo, seems nicely imprinted.It is located at two spots on the cover, and in addition to white lettering it is also molded (indented) into the surface of the cover.There are also flames indented on the surface though those are not painted white.
I originally wanted this for the winter thinking that I could keep this inside and then take it out to my car in the morning.The theory was that the grip would stay warm and make driving a lot easier on my hands.
That turned out to not be practical.Installing the grip on even the smaller end of the range (14.5 to 15.5 inches) was not easy.Once you have it installed and leave the grip in your car, the cold makes it tighten on the steering wheel.The cardboard insert explains that this must be heated to be installed and removed.So once it's on there, it's on there.And since I already have a leather steering wheel, this isn't much warmer after my car's been sitting in the cold all night.
Originally I thought there was a negative aspect in that mine did slip somewhat and did not seem properly sized.I tried it on several vehichles just to verify (1 american made newer model car and several smaller japanese cars).However, after leaving it overnight in my car and seeing how difficult it was to remove afterwards, I realized that I didn't have to worry about it slipping too much.
CONCLUSION
Considering the price, this is an OK buy.For fans of OCC custom motorcycles or the show that features them, this is a nice novelty gift and will definitely get some use.I wonder if the logos will fade over time, though the product features claim they won't.Only time will tell for that point.I will update this review after longer term use.
Enjoy.

DID has always made good m/c chain, this is a good one. I run it on a tanked up 150 sport and there is no wear to be seen after 500 miles. It is an O ring chain so remember to put the master link in with the O rings well greased! I wipe it off clean when it is dirty and lightly use synthetic 90wt hypoid to oil the chain. My last one showed no wear after 5000 miles and never needed adjusting.Great chain.
