bad joint needs replacing

Probably bad cv joint, but many have had issue with inside carrier bearings also. (made in china)

Check the shock bushings on the upper rear shock mounts. I had to replace all 4 sets of mine front and rear due to them cracking. They are very cheaply made. I'm looking at machining billet aluminum ones so I don't have to keep replacing the cheap stock ones. More than likely this is the sound you are hearing.

Also check you chain, the IRS requires the chain to be somewhat tight(refer to the manual)compared to SRA quads. If the chain is a loose it will hit the frame.

Also check the rear bearings. Grab the sprocket with one hand and the rotor with the other. Pushing and ulling there should be not movement but rotation.

^^^^^^^ You hit that my quad lost the bearings and that is the best way to check em
