GT 185 false neutral

My GT185A has been having a problem with a false neutral going from second to third gear that is getting worse. I had to split the cases to replace a chewed up crank pin, while open I checked shifter forks and drum,everything looks and operates fine by hand, but when I use the shifter arm it doesn't rotate the drum completely into third, runs out of travel, but all other gears work fine. I am thinking it is a problem with pins and or plate that goes on the end of drum. Anyone have this issue or ideas? thanks

When I removed the plate from the end of shifter drum, I found a broken pin, so I replaced all pins and the plate.
