No issues up shift, but issues down shift, is generally a good indicator of the clutch dragging a little and the clutch needs some adjusting to get full disengagement. These bikes tend to suffer from a decent amount of clutch fade once the engine gets hot, so what might seem fine cold, is not fine once warmed up, and will either need re-adjusting at the lever once you get up to temp, and/or the clutch adjusted to what almost seems like it is nearly too tight when cold.
