It sounds to me like you need to have the valves adjusted. The ticking when it first starts is probably that the valves are loose enough and the oil hasn't got to the top to quiten them a little. The lose of power sounds like the valves also.
How many miles?

my foreman ticks when it first starts but it has all the power it should after the ticking stops when you push the gas the first time
