I'd check the timing before going too deep into the motor.  Sounds like the chain flopped and jumped a tooth or woodruff key sheared on the crank.  Backfiring  is usually caused by either firing at the wrong time or intake valve not closing completely.

It's a 2 stroke  so it wouldn't  have a timing  chain

Never had a 2 stroke.  I've had a 125, 185, have a 250 quadrunner in the garage now, king quad in the past, about everything Honda made in an ATC, some Kawi's, a Can Am now. Just no 2 strokes.  Thought about buying one recently just because I have no experience with them at all.

      2000 Yamaha big bear 400 won’t start
      By Mister907
      Hi guys, I have a 2004 big bear 400. Last winter while plowing the driveway, I heard a loud pop from the left side of the engine. It continued to run as I looked for leaky fluid, but then died shortly after backing it up and won’t start now. The oil light comes on when I try to start it, no noise or anything else. 
      No blown fuses that I can find.
