Trouble getting into 3rd gear
#1
I can shift up to 2nd but it won't go up to 3rd.  The lever moves up but it just stays in 2nd.  I then have to change down to 1st then back to 2nd a few times and then the gears work fine for the rest of my journey.  After leaving the bike until after work or overnight the problem comes back until I shift between 1st and 2nd a few times.
Any ideas?  The bike is a 1998 FZS600 with 30k on the clock.  I commute 70 miles a day mostly on the motorway so gearbox is not extensively used and I change the oil every 6 months.
