1996 xvz1300 clutch maybe slipping at 4th & 5th gear

I just got this bike I had test rode it got doing about 70 and rode back in . I really liked the feel. I´d not rode almost a year and thought it was OK I just needed to adjust to it . after a week I rode a hiway trip 200 miles round trip. When in 4th gear at about 60 it seemed as if I pulled the clutch in . strange ihit5th gear and it seemed to have the same thing felt as if I pulled the clutch in and hit the throttle. I´m worried about the clutch.
Does anyone know what I´m dealing with. Is there an adjustment or something . how much is a new clutch installation
