Default Shifting Issues

Riding my 08 Super Glide today when all of a sudden I was not able to shift up or down. Figured out that if I used my toe, I could move the shifter back to the center position and then shift up or down. This now has to be done every time. Is this a common issue, and is it difficult to fix? Please help. Thanks.

Have you done anything to bike? Change primary fluid, adjusted clutch, etc.?

I have changed the primary fluid and adjusted the clutch recently. The clutch works fine. It feels like the linkage in the transmission is very stiff.
