difficult to get into first gear

Quick question to see if this is a common issue on these bikes, or if something is out of adjustment on mine.
Sitting at a light, in neutral, when I go to put it in first gear itll feel like it shifted, but then it doesnt take off, and the neutral light will be slightly dim. I sometimes mess around with the shifter (shift up and then down) and then it finally gets into first gear.
This doesnt happen every single time, but a lot more than what I think is usual.
Is there an adjustment somewhere? I know theres some threads on the shifter rod, but would it make a real difference?
Anyways, just throwing it out there to see if anyones experienced this before.
Im just about to leave on my big trip in a few weeks so I want to iron out all these little bugs before I take off.
Thanks guys, i appreciate it
