I make my living with my motorbike. 7 weeks ago the suspension 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 wife and our newborn. Before the breakdown I worked eleven 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 $1,650 goes:
• Labor charges: $195
• suspension replacement (parts): $1,350
• Towing and inspection: $105
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
