I make my living with my motorbike. 3 weeks ago the suspension failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $900. 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 two daughters and my mother. Before the breakdown I worked twelve hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next four 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 $900 goes: • suspension replacement (parts): $530 • Labor charges: $170 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $200 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Olivia
