Default 2002 Honda Foreman Rubicon 500 Help!

Okay. I think my bike jumped time. Valves and rocker arms are fine. Bike gets fuel and gets spark. But it back fires after abouut 10 seconds of turning over.
I was told by a mechanic that those bikes were bad for their timing chains.
My question does it sound like the chain for sure? If so is the process hard? Timely? Costly?
I need a reply back soon please.
