good question. Personally I would go with the dual bend. It looks more like stock. I don't think there is a performance difference between the two. I would also recommend getting EnergySuspension bushing.

I had a single bend, and now i have the Skunk 2 Dual...Dual is much nicer. At least thats my opinion.

Dual bent looks and feels stock - just shorter.
Get both the knob and shifter as they're weighted to work together perfectly.

Skunk2 Dual with Skunk2 weighted 440 gram knob make the best combo ever......IMO

For a couple bucks more....Like b16a2pwr said..... Go with the Energy Suspension Bushing kit for that final touch.

I have the skunk2 dual bend and shift knob and love it, and i definetly recommend the bushing also cause i noticed a big difference when i put it in.
