Well I finally got all my stuff on the Raptor. Now, it runs excellent and has more power than I imagined but anyway after I shut it off there is a soft pop, not a backfire about a second after I shut it off. Suggestions? Also, I had a little problem tensioning the chain, well I broke on of the bolts and only about 1 and 1/2 threads are showing! Is there any possible ways that I can get that bolt out? Also, were there more than 1 nut I was supposed to loosen to before going to those 2 bolts to adjust the chain? It just seemed abnormally hard and I thought I was going to break a bolt while I was doing it, speak of the devil, I slipped once and the bolt came with me, any help is greatly appreciated,

The pop is probably excess fuel that didn't get burnt off.. Quadman's bike shot a flame out the end after he killed it and it burnt all the hair off my arm... There are 2 nuts 17mm i think, that u have to loosen before adjusting the chain. If you were trying to take slack outta the chain i would left the 2 small bolts alone and just pulled the carrier back towards you, then tightend the 2 small bolts down. If you were trying to get more slack i would backed the 2 bolts out a bit then kicked the carrier up 2 them.

 

Mine makes that pop too. I don't think it's anything to worry about.
Sounds like you didn't loosen the carrier bolts when you adjusted the chain. Try making a slot in the broken off bolt with a hacksaw to screw it out with a screw driver. Loosen your carrier bolts before you try to unscrew it to take the pressure off.

 

thanks for the help on the pop guys. Well I did take the nuts off of those 2 bolts and I looked for carrier bolts, there was only 1 on the old warrior I had but I couldnt find any ob the raptor, , thanks for the idea on getting the bolt out too, you guys are great, any furtehr help appreciated,

There are two 17mm nuts behind the brake rotor that you have to loosen.
