SOURCE: C90 HARD TO SHIFT DOWN FROM THIRD GEAR
You have a bent shift fork. The repair means taking the engine out of the frame then removing the top end, removing the flywheel and electrics, removing the clutch , shift mechanism and kick starter and a few other parts. THEN you are ready to split the gearbox to remove the crankshaft and then the bent shift fork. Next you get to put it all back together. This is a pretty big job for the home mechanic.
You will need an impact driver, flywheel puller, case splitter and torque wrench plus the normal screwdriver, pliers, etc.. Alternate to the special tools is taking it to the dealer and say "Fix it".
I normally tell people to take it to the shop just so they don't get into such an involved project.
Please rate this solution. Thanks
SOURCE: I have a 01 rm 125. Just overhauled the engine,
if all other gears shif fine, only thing possibly wrong is the shifting mechanism, like bent fork, washer on shaft in the wrong spot etc most likely during overhaul, something was not put back in the right place
SOURCE: Have a problem with the clutch. On cold days my
Old dirty fluid may still be caught in the seals of the piston or may have damaged them.
This will stop the piston from returning all the way and engaging the do not start if not in neutral or stand not up, If clutch is pulled in it will bypass these safety stops until released.
SOURCE: I have an 83 rm 125 and know nothing about bikes!!

Hello and welcome to FixYa!
Looks like that the clutch itself is worn out that's why you're having a hard time. I strongly suggest that you check the clutch and have it replaced.
Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa! Have a good one!
