Default Wont catch 2nd

Hi I have a 94 sportster 1200 I just got it back from the shop had a bad leak that ended up being to much primary fluid in it, so the guy took it out and put the right amount in. But now I can't catch 2nd gear in high rpm from 1st gear I can only catch it at 20 mph or lower. I used to be able to no problem before he took all the fluid out. I tried the clutch cable and tried adjusting the clutch and got no success. Any ideas what it could be.

If it's only happening in 2nd then it's a bent shift fork, fork rod or rounded dog teeth on the gears.
