Default "Brand New 07 Predator 500 Losing Power?"...

I got a brand new bike recently...but for some reason I feel that i'm losing power...when i'm driving I can feel that it isn't strong like it was earlier in the day...also when i'm in first about to shift to second...it really doesn't feel strong enough to shift...and when I do shift it feels like I short shifted...but i'm losing power...so anybody know what it could be?...maybe the engine breaking in from being new still?...

I fixed the problem...I was losing power cause the negative cable to the battery was loose...so I guess as I ride and hit bumps it would lose the connection and everything...I noticed it when I was in nuetral but the light wasn't on...
