Default Braking Problem

I've got a 06 H1, went out riding and now it seems that the brakes are not engaging fully. I cheched the brake fluid and it is good, I even bled the brakes but the problem is still there.

Will they lock up? Are you talking about the foot brake and hand brake? How many miles do you have on it?

The foot brake will lock up but the hand won't. It only has 100km on it.

I would suspect a bad seal in either the master cylinder or one of the disc. The bad part is the only way to trouble shot it is to replace or rebuild the master cylinder and go from there. It is under warranty, I would take back to the dealer rather than spend my time and money on it.

Well I took it to the dealership and they said that I had 2 bent rotors and a broken knuckle, and also 2 sets of brake pads???? Does this sound right? Should this be warranty, they said that a rock may have flew up and came into the rim and damaged the parts??

I'd watch it with your dealer, if they dont do it under warrenty there trying to rip you off, very unlikly that rocks got in both rotors in both sides and tore up the same parts on both sides. It should be under warrenty with that many miles/km.
