I was paging through my Elite 50 manual and it said max. weight 180 and I weigh 195. Is this a safety issue or will it just be more of a performance
factor.

mostly performance factor. my friend who's like 230lbs had no trouble riding it. your top might be slower by a mile or two, but u ought to be ok imo.
