Engine slap??

I have a 2015 RK. I'm not sure how to describe this noise. When release the throttle fully as I'm riding there seems to be a slapping noise. I'll hear it again when I get back on it. If I do it slowly it I can sometimes avoid it. Does this sound familiar to anyone? Thanks, Eric

Check your belt and primary chain tension.
