Question? When I hit the throttle my bike hesitates. It will not get faster until the higher RPMs. Does anyone know what this could be?

Update... I replaced the plugs and checked the air filter none of that solved it. It's getting gas so I took it to a shop. I was told the clutch is slipping. I first noticed the problem yesterday. I can pull the throttle back but only so much power goes to the rear tire.

Yes Cooter thats exactly the problem. If I hit the throttle fast the bike will remain very slow but if I roll on the gas slowly the bike will accelerate. I learned to ride on my zx14 so I will admit to clutching way too much at the beginning. I know not to ride the clutch at this point. Just apart of that learning curve I guess. Does anyone know which clutch kit would be better to avoid this from happening again?
