    sounds like you have put your gear shifter back in the wrong position on the spline and it is maybe hitting the case when trying to get into 5th gear as maybe it is a longer click up on your bike to get 5th or something....reposition the gear shift mechanism 1 or 2 teeth different on it's spline and try that

    hope that helps
