The only "issue" I've ever had is very rarely, it will resist going into first if I'm stopped at a light and in neutral and will require me to toggle up to second and back down into first rather than clicking straight into first from neutral. That happens very rarely though.

That's perfectly normal for a motorcycle transmission. That's a common trait of a transmission that is not a constant-mesh / synchro-mesh design.
An easier way to go from neutral to first while stopped is to let the clutch out and then pull it back in. You should be able to go straight from neutral to first gear after that. Another tactic that works is to roll the bike a few inches (forward or back) and then shift into first.

Yes, I either pop it up to second and back down, roll it forward or clutch and unclutch. Never been an "issue" for me even in heavy commuter traffic. TBH it rarely even happens. It's usually just it's typical easy shifting smooth self.
