Glad you found the reason and you think opening up the engine is 'easy'! Now go and ride it, and I'm sure we'll all look forward to seeing the video.

Previous Rides,
1980 CB250N Good to learn on
1981 CX500 good mid range tourer, went to Austria on it!
1983 GL1100C Pride and joy, sold when I bought my 1st house, big mistake
1985 GL650 Silverwing another mistake, horrible bike
1986 CBX550 Good commuter
1989 Suzuki GS750 (1976) cheap and cheerful until a dog ran out in front of me on Xmas Eve, 1991
Current bikes
2010 CB1300 back on a bike after 19 years, two divorces, children grown up etc
1980 GL1100 NOW ON THE ROAD, still use CB1300.

I assume that at rebuilding, I turned upside down 5th gear sproket ....that way would not work at all!!!
Now shifts great and soft.
I had to open the engine again, but now it’s easy for me. Lot of experience!!
Thanks for your replies an this topic.
