2005 yz 250 shifting problems

My 05 yz250 two stroke has developed shifting problems.Sometimes it won't go into 1st,other times I only have 2nd and 3rg gears.Then it will shift through all gears for a while but then return to it's original problem(.s) I pulled the clutch side cover off and removed the clutch.The shifting actuation mechanisms are all in place with no loose or broken parts.??also the shift shaft moves in and out about a 1/2" any help would be appreciated Thanks

    The clutch lever on my 2005 FXSTI Softail has about 1/4" play in it before starts pulling the cable to the clutch. Now the clutch is slipping as I shift through the gears.

Well. I'm a motorcycle mechanic and my 2004 RMZ 250 recently did the same thing, The Shift forks inside my transmission actually bent and were not moving the gears as far as they needed to go and eventually got to where it quit shifting all together, recently also repaired a CR 125 That wouldn't shift at all and it was the shaft the shift forks go on was bent and hung the shift forks. Sounds like your shift forks are bent to me though.
