Have you undone the tank lately? There are vacuum tubes off the fuel cock and can be dislodged or damaged when the tank is moved. I've had it popping after having one disconnect.

Also a blocked pilot jet can cause popping, difficulty starting, bad on throttle roll off etc. Least that's what seemed to be responsible for mine but given I had to restrip the carb maybe something else was reset. You should be able to see daylight through the jet when removed. If the bike hasn't had a carb kit through it recently well worth doing anyway given TRXes have a known habit of going through the needles and emulsion tubes every 10-15k Kms. You get replacement pilot jets as part of some kits.
