Yeah, I think taqwache is right on the money. I would put my money there. His reason would explain why it's all the 'top' gears. It's gotta be that. Just my two cents....

The stop bolt that the shifter SHOULD NOT hit in 1st, 3rd and 5th under normal shifting. You line it up touching and then back it off 1 turn or so. That way if you really slammed the gear forward it'd hit but not otherwise.
