what bend?
the type nine stick is straight...
if you hit it hard enough where the bulge is it comes apart..
may find this too short but you can weld to it to make it longer..
a link to making a quick shift.. i made a spacer out of perspex rather than araldite..

I took mine appart at the rubber joint and put a thread on bit that was left.
It is just the right length for me.

You could buy a Quaife Short shift type 9 lever, it will need cutting down as its about half inch thick and 9" in length but there is no bend in
it!

Just to clarify, its this bend here i want rid of
Description
my gear lever has already been cut down by the last owner. i quite like the length of it, and i want to try it in the car first before i try and
shorten the throw of it.

cut across the angle and spin through 180 reweld or clamp it in the vice and exert huge amounts of pressure
