Don't let the hp numbers fool you. Its all in how you get it to the ground. Clutching clutching clutching!

95 psi is ok for a 500 4stroke.I would check the clutches out for worn parts like ramp buttons in the secondary clutch and wore weights and slide buttons in the front clutch.

There you go, that would certainly explain it, just like trying to take off in 5th gear with your car. Easy to check out too. Make sure to come back and give a report.
