help me if you can

[fear]

i was riding this afternoon on my week old busa, got about 500 miles on it, give or take, and i go to clutch up awheelie and the tire breaks loose for a split second and then the bike meaks the horrorific sound, like something breaks, a loud snap sort of, i thought maybe the chain skipped a tooth, the later on i just kind of gave the throttle a quick jerk, just goofing around an it did it again, the chain seems to have the propper amount of slack in it, any ideas?

How heavy are you.....if yer a heavy dude and yer clutching up wheelies but spinning instead.......maybe check to see if you snapped a sprocket tooth, but I doubt it.
Could you tell what side of the bike the noise came from?

Jump the Cush?

 

[fear]

couldnt tell where it came from, i inspected the teeth and they looked cool, i think i may have just skipped a tooth, is this common on these?

 

[CorrodedAlien]

Like MSF asked, how big are you?

6'5 275

check front sprocket and make sure your chain is adjusted correctly I bet it is not
