Sometimes when I approach a light and don't shift down before I stop I cant get it down to first while stationary. Then I have to dissengage the clutch a bit, in whatever gear its in so it shifts.
I agree with the others on checking the adgustments, but also Pixie. Are you trying to shift down once stopped at a light or as you approach the stop? I too sometimes need to let out on the clutch a little if it will not go into first once already stopped.
