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

Without my motorbike Henk can't work; a $1,150 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my motorbike. 8 weeks ago the rear axle 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 ten hours a day, six days a week. I have been offered extra shifts for the next four 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: • Towing and inspection: $160 • rear axle replacement (parts): $830 • Road tax and insurance renewal: $160 I hope life is good to you. - Henk
