Sounds like it may have a shiftrail/ fork issue.

Take the boot off and examine it when going into gear. Does the shift from first to second happen to feel a little shorter than normal by chance?

Fixed

I'd get it looked at by a professional, like Six Speeds Inc. Joe and Amber are sponsors here and they know these transmissions. Give them a call and see what they think.
