My motorbike: Aaliyah's only way to earn a living
Aaliyah drives for a living in Half-Way Tree, and a broken transmission has stopped all income for 6 weeks.

I make my living with my motorbike. 6 weeks ago the transmission failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $500. 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 wife and our newborn. Before the breakdown I worked nine hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next three 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 $500 goes:
• transmission replacement (parts): $300
• Labor charges: $70
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $115
• Towing and inspection: $15
Glad we found this place.
