    How would a gear knobs weight have anything to do with how the shift feels?? I would say bugger all to none...Not on something this small anyway...If anything, it would come down to mechanical advantage(gear stick length), and not the weight of a bit of leather bound plastic.

    good call. i don't think at this scale a gear knob would make any noticeable difference. but hey, if you are set on it, as said before, there are a few people that have removed theirs, so you can ask them.

    here is a photo of me and a few mates installing my new gear knob, i dont think gear shifts will feel much different.
