Shifting problem
I have a 83 Flht W/sidecar, The engine is rubber mounted with a 5 speed, when I shift up it is hard to get into gear and when I shift down it acts normal. I tried adjusting the clutch and readjusted it, so it seems that is not the problem, well maybe?. Does anyone have any suggestions on this problem. Thanks for your help.

In addition to Mark`s suggestion, grab the shift lever at the transmission and make sure it is secure, sometimes they get loose and slip on the splines causing shifting problems (this in not uncommon).
If everything is secure and moving freely, check the adjustment of the shifter pawl, it is explained in the service manual.
