How long since you replaced the clutch? you might just need to wait until you break it in. I think the clutch is hooking up too good since its new. maybe? I know I used to have this problem when I used to drag race(cars). With a new clutch it was harder to get traction. I had to start it out at lower revs cuz otherwise the tires would just spin. Anyone else?

CHECK YOUR TIRE PRESSURE. YOU MIGHT HAVE TO COME DOWN A COUPLE OF PSI TO GAIN TRACTION. YOU MIGHT HAVE BEEN USED TO YOUR OLD CLUTCH[SLIGHTLY WORN] SO YOU HAD TO GIVE IT MORE SNAP TO LIFT IT, NOW WITH A NEW CLUTCH YOU DON'T NEED AS MUCH.PLAY WITH YOUR SPEED AND CLUTCH COMBO, YOU'LL FIND IT. BE SAFE
