When I slow down on my predator it makes this whinning sound. It sounds like the chain but im not sure. Any help would be great. thanks.

the noise you are hearing is from the chain going over a new chain buffer or roller on the front of the swingarm, nothing to worry about, my 05 did it too. when you decellerate the swingarm extends and the chain loosens slightly and starts rubbing the chain roller.

Is there anyway to fix it?

The best way to fix it is to accelerate! LOL

well no way to fix it, your chain slider or roller will wear down quickly and the noise will go away.
