Support Nate's Motorcycle Recovery

Hello, my name is Nate. I'm a single father raising 3 kids. I'm trying to raise funds to fix my motorcycle. I was involved in an accident where I was rear-ended by another bike. My oldest daughter was involved in 2 previous accidents. Under my insurance, I'm already paying 6,000 dollars for 6 months of insurance. I cannot afford another claim.

The person that hit me is a close friend. They don't have all of their credentials, and I don't want to get them in trouble. They also don't want to pay for my bike. I'm at a loss. Anything would help. Thank you very much.
