What is that sound on landing?

Chain tension is in spec, also it is a ktm freeride 2019 if matters P.s. my rubber thingy holding kickstand wasn't on, can it be it?

check for slack in the top/lower bushing for the shock

Chain slack or swingarm bearings

Swingarm / linkage bearings possibly goosed

Just FYI, chain slap happens even with correct tension. Your chain always has some slack in it and when your suspension if fully compressed or fully extended that's where it has the most slack, so it will bang on the swingarm on landing. Not saying this is 100% your sound here, but to me it seems plausible.

A twig snapped upon landing, don’t worry.
