If you are trying to drop 2 or 3 gears while at a stand still, the gears will fight you. I just went through this myself. This bike likes to shift while moving. I thought something was up with the my bike. I tried a few different oils as well. Once I figured out the problem was me and changed the way I rode it, the issue went away.
When I come to a complete stop I am always in first gear.
