Depending on the problem, it could be as simple as a worn return spring. It could also be a trashed gearshift drum, in which case you're looking at a lot of labor to pull the motor and split the cases. Take it to a REPUTABLE shop and have it checked out, if changing the oil does not make it feel any different.

Is it linkage slop (probably) or gearbox? I say check all the pivots are tight and not worn out. Otherwise invest in some rear-sets, that will get you a better riding position and fix the slop
