Avery needs my motorbike repaired to get back to work in Fort Worth
Without my motorbike Avery can't work; a $2,000 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my motorbike. 4 weeks ago the fuel pump failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $2,000. Without the vehicle I earn nothing.
I have been borrowing from friends to pay rent, and now I have run out of people to ask.
I support my family of five. Before the breakdown I worked nine hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next six months if I can just get the vehicle working.
I have a written estimate from a certified mechanic and will upload it here.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $2,000 goes:
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $260
• Labor charges: $230
• fuel pump replacement (parts): $1,510
With deep gratitude,
Avery
