Default busted my 700r raptor

I've got about 50-60 good hours on my 06 700 raptor. when I went riding last friday I took a small jump pined in 3rd gear. Well i got a little screwed up in the air and rolled when I landed. I'm ok but I bent the steering bars, column, and front left fender stay. I was still able to ride the bike the rest of the day, However later that night is was down in some loose sand in first on a side hill and it sounded like my chain or tranny was skipping. LOUD CLUNK...ClUNK...CLUNK. It also did it trying to make it out, in second,of the hill when I burried the back end. I felt my chain and it felt tight. I rode for another hour or so and no more noise or problem? Any Ideas? Could of my roll over tweake the rear end? any help would be greatly appreciated. I've got about 1 more month on my 6 month warrenty and if it is the tranny, I'm thinking I should extend my warrenty before my tranny blows. Thanks again

might front and rear sprockets look good. can't remember if I could feel it or not. It only happened 3 times and I was in a bad spot each time. I was looking at my bike today and noticed that if I compress my rear suspension all the way down I have almost 2"s of chain slack. So I guess it might of skipped a tooth or something? I thought the chain tightened up when the suspension was compressed like susuki's, guess I was wrong.

If your chain gets looser when you compress the rear end then your chain adjustments nuts must be loose.I would check that before you ride again just to be safe.
