You're not shifting up 'two' gears into second, you're shifting up 'one full click'

Neutral is a half click above 1st, and second is a full click. So when driving and you're in first, one full click (shift) will put you in second - not two.

Well your transmission has to be overhauled. The shifter fork moves up and down on the shift gear and in and out of the gear cogs to allow it to shift gears.

How do you shift a 1939 Indian motorcycle?

Release the throttle and engage the foot shift to engage the clutch. next grab the shifter and slowly push the gear forward into first. The next 3 gears and straight back on the shifter. The 1939 Indian Scout has a 3 speed transmission. When shifting from 1st to 2nd please do the same as shifting into first gear. That's it. The slower the rpms on the motor the easier it will go into gear.

Why does a 1974 Super VW go into 3rd and 4th gear but not first or second?

The synchronizers in the transmission are bad. If the gears grind when trying to get it into 1st or 2nd then it's probably the synchro's. If you just can't get it into gear then the 'shift rod bushing' or the "shift couplers" are worn. They are under the gear shift inside the shift tunnel. If you don't know if they have been replaced or not they probably haven't been. Buy the Bentley manual and it will walk you thru it.
