I make my living with my motorbike. 6 weeks ago the transmission failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $450. 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 3 children. Before the breakdown I worked twelve 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.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $450 goes:
• transmission replacement (parts): $370
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $35
• Labor charges: $45
If you're reading this, thank you.

is there anything that isn't money that would help Gökhan?
Thank you. If you're in Bornova I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks for looking so closely.
thinking of you and your family, Gökhan. Shared this with my family. My neighbor in Syracuse donated after I showed her your page. Greetings from Syracuse
Thinking of you and your family, Gökhan. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
Best of luck, Gökhan. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
