I have over 10,000 kilometers on my 2017 CB1100 EX. Any shifting problems I had were user errors: lazy shifts, hurried shifts, etc.
The comment about boots is also relevant. When I returned to motorcycling 4 years ago I wore steel toe construction boots and often missed shifts. I bought a pair of Alpinestars Roam boots and the problem disappeared. They were also taller, so my shins remained warmer in cold weather.
