First gear sometimes is a struggle into sometimes. I not quite sure why, just it acts as you have to really hit the peddle hard to get in first.
Pull the clutch lever in only partially while pushing down on the shift lever. When first gear begins to engage, ... This is such an ingrained habit of boxer riders that most of us do it unconsiously.
The shift must be made quickly after the clutch is in, or else it won't go in (the gears stop turning and then the dogs won't engage - it's a design feature). If you do this, let the clutch out, then re-engage it and shift quickly into first.
