Welcome to the forum. I am assuming, you do not have much experience with bikes, so I will cover some basics on shifting. First never shift the bike without having the clutch disengaged. You can bend a shift fork by doing this, and damage the teeth on the gears. Second they are harder to shift when sitting still. Even with the engine running. Third they are designed to go from second to neutral. Not from first to neutral. That way, you will not hit neutral while up-shifting.
How many miles does your bike have?

I like vintage bikes because they take me away from the clutter of technology that I work with everyday and back to a simpler time of mechanical elegance and simplicity.. "ninadm"
