My motorbike: Umesh's only way to earn a living
Without my motorbike Umesh can't work; a $200 repair would put him back on the road.

I make my living with my motorbike. 4 weeks ago the engine head gasket failed, and the mechanic says the repair will cost $200. 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 younger brothers and sisters. 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.
All money will go toward the parts and labor on the estimate, with a small amount for road tax and insurance renewal.
Where the $200 goes:
• engine head gasket replacement (parts): $95
• Labor charges: $40
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $20
• Towing and inspection: $45
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
