you could check the oil level of the existing oil make sure theres not too much in, next try an oil change if its been a year since the last.

Simple things first----Check chain is lubed and adjusted correctly.Lube gear pedal pivot and linkage.Check oil level and think about changing it.I find old oil leads to poor gear selection.
