Do you mean while you are moving, or stopped? If moving, I can never get it into 1st (well, maybe under 5mph or so) unless I match the revs. I'm thinking there must be a lockout or something that prevents you from jamming it into 1st under higher speeds (like reverse).
Now if you mean while stopped, then that is definitly a problem
