On the 650 engine, the single carb bikes lacked ALMOST nothing against the dual-carb Bonnies.

On the 500, I think there is a bit more difference.

Still, the Bonnie is the more desireable bike to have as evidenced by the pricetags. (Bonnies ALWAYS cost more).

The dual carb setups are a bit more fiddly to balance & tune perfectly than a single carb.
