there is one or two speed sensors on side of transmission to tell it when to shift. They are magnetic. When they get covered in metal shavings, they quit functioning. Pull them out, wipe off the metal shavings with a soft lint-free rag, and re-install them. This may fix your problem. It worked for me, when mine was stuck in first gear....... Good Luck :)
change your transmission fluid and transmission filter if the problem persists then your transmission is most likely no good.
Your synchro is going bad.

If stick shift jumps outta second gear is it okay to drive the car?

Cable too slack.
The shift pattern on a 1995 Yamaha Warrior 350 is a standard manual configuration, featuring a five-speed transmission with a heel-toe shifter. The pattern is typically one down for first gear and four up for the higher gears, meaning you shift down to engage first and then shift up through the gears sequentially. There is no neutral between first and second; neutral is located between first and second gear.
You need to have the transmission computer checked for codes. It will default into second gear only when a malfunction is detected.
The shift link cable could be broken, or the 1st/2nd shift fork, inside the transmission, could be damaged.
Probably the shift linkage in that model.
No it will shift slow.
When shifting from first to second gear in a manual transmission vehicle, you need to press the clutch pedal to disengage the engine from the transmission. Then, while keeping the clutch pedal depressed, move the gear shifter from first gear to second gear. Finally, release the clutch pedal slowly while simultaneously pressing the gas pedal to smoothly engage the engine with the transmission in second gear.
