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

Without my motorbike Lin can't work; a $700 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my motorbike. 8 weeks ago the engine head gasket failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $700. 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 two daughters and my mother. Before the breakdown I worked ten 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. I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update. Where the $700 goes: โ€ข Road tax and insurance renewal: $250 โ€ข Towing and inspection: $150 โ€ข Labor charges: $300 With deep gratitude, Lin
