Hard to shift problem.

Ive been noticing that its extremely hard to shift from 1-2 and 3-4 gear when Im heavy on the throttle. Its harder from 3-4. When Im driving normal, its as easy as always. Even at high RPM's its not hard, unless I have it floored. Has anyone else experienced or heard of a problem like this? Thanks.

Transmission syncros bad? or bent fork? Its so hard to pin point with a tranny. I dont have this issue. Only issue I had was getting into first gear but I was pushing to far to the left then up so that was all me man.
