tjfisher30,
Yes, read the "Tech Tip" from the main page, Transmission, 2nd gear fix.
The job sounds like a lot, but can be done without pulling the engine or splitting cases. I did mine, first time, in two days. I also drained everything and had the bike upside down on a low stand. That DID make it easy to work on.
Plan on doing a dremmel fix on first and second gear, just to be safe.Ray Matteis

i might be a lame rider, cause, almost everytime i ride i get a false 4 to 5 false neutral and i can never get it back in up or down without grinding the bejesus outof it
to me this is a worse offender that crusing gingerly in second and it slipping out, but i'm sure she wouldn't like it tho.
any more comments on this?"a good man knows his limitations" dirty harry

Your false neutral problem sounds more like it might be from a weak or broken shifter return spring, or mis-alignment in the shifter assembly. Have a look at this thread to see if this might be your problem.Ken Talbot
