Hello from Brazil!

Greetings from São Paulo, Brazil!

I have a new to me 2006 Scrambler. This is a rare model in Brazil, but hopefully we´ll see many more on the streets once the new Triumph dealers and "factory" (some models are now assembled in Brazil as "CKD")!! open in a few days!

I am very happy with the bike, it came with the Arrow 2-1, fantastic! Initially I wanted a Bonneville because I thought the Scrambler would be too tall for my 5'3" height, but once I sat on it and managed to take it off the kickstand without effort, I thought it was a better choice because I prefer the high pipe, position of the pegs and handlebar.

It´s not always easy to manouver, though, so I am considering swapping the shocks with the Bonnie shocks to see if I get more comfortable manouvering. But if it compromises handling, comfort and looks, I will stick to the standard height and use boots with a thicker sole...

Look forward to exchanging information with other Hinckley Twin lovers!
