I had the same problem until I moved the shifter up 1 notch. It sits too low. What was happening was that I was putting pressure on it constantly due to it being so low. Keeping pressure on it would constantly cause me to miss either 2nd or 3rd because it just didnt' want to go into gear. Once I raised it a notch it worked great. You'll have to notch your sprocket cover for it to work though. I just took a 1 inch grinding wheel and ground it down some and it looks like it was made that way.

Hope this helps!
