My motorbike: Angel's only way to earn a living

Angel drives for a living in Rochester, and a broken clutch assembly has stopped all income for 6 weeks.

I make my living with my motorbike. 6 weeks ago the clutch assembly failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,650. 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 2 children. Before the breakdown I worked twelve 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 $1,650 goes: • clutch assembly replacement (parts): $880 • Labor charges: $430 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $240 • Towing and inspection: $100 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
