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

I make my living with my motorbike. 12 weeks ago the clutch assembly failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $1,150. 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 family of five. 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 $1,150 goes: • clutch assembly replacement (parts): $620 • Labor charges: $280 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $210 • Towing and inspection: $40 With deep gratitude, Dominique
