My motorbike: Chalida's only way to earn a living
Without my motorbike Chalida can't work; a $500 repair would put her back on the road.

I make my living with my motorbike. 12 weeks ago the clutch assembly 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 ten 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 $500 goes:
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $40
• Labor charges: $65
• clutch assembly replacement (parts): $395
With deep gratitude,
Chalida

Take care, Chalida. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. All the best.
Keep going, Chalida. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't give up. God bless.
best of luck, Chalida. Hope the shop reopens soon. Wish I lived closer to Agra so I could bring a meal. All the best.
hope it all works out, Chalida. This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Khon Kaen.
