Missing Shifts?

I got a quick question about the tranny. Every once in a while when I'm riding I'll go to shift, pull the clutch and hit the shifter, and it won't shift. It'll move, but not click, and when I let the clutch out, it is still in the same gear as before. Also, I've had it not shift into first when I was sitting at a stop light. Will this get better as it breaks in a bit more, or is there some trick to making it sure shift every time? I'm also thinking that a good, high quality oil may help these weird symptoms.

Maybe I just need to learn how to shift better and this is all just me!

Thanks!

Travis
