I recently switched my tranny fluid {under advice from many including this site} from 10-40 to ATF-F. Clutch action is like new, and it shifts great, except when cold. When the tranny is cold {first lap of the day} it doesn't want to shift into fifth. Once I'm riding for a bit, the bike seems to shift all gears fine. Any ideas???? [2001 KX250]
