Tanvir needs my motorbike repaired to get back to work in Dhaka
Tanvir's my motorbike is Tanvir's only source of income and needs a radiator and cooling system replacement costing $200.
🇧🇩 Dhaka, Bangladesh315 views
I make my living with my motorbike. 3 weeks ago the radiator and cooling system 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 1 children. Before the breakdown I worked twelve 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.
I'll pay the mechanic directly and show you the repaired vehicle in an update.
Where the $200 goes:
• radiator and cooling system replacement (parts): $125
• Labor charges: $25
• Road tax and insurance renewal: $35
• Towing and inspection: $15
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
