Default 90 Katana 600 2nd gear?

I just bought a 90 Katana 600. I was told that when put into 2nd it pops out to neutral. I am thinking that this may be caused by a bent or worn shift fork and or a worn gear. Has anyone else had this problem and fixed it them selves. I have some mechanical knowledge and believe that with the right guidance I can fix it. Does anyone have a how-to on this problem. I have a second engine for this bike and it has the same problem. So I do not have to worry about pulling the engine.

I will thank you all in advance for any info that you may bring.
