03 r6, second gear slipping

basically in the title, I mainly use it as a commuter bike but the other night I went to slip the clutch in second(like ive done a million times before) and instead of some fun I got what felt like the transmission slipping. Anyone ever have a problem like this or know anthing about what it might be. My sprockets are good by the way

could also be your clutch cable. my 03 did that to me i thought my clutch was going and realized my clutch cable was old and wasnt releasing quickly. replaced it and it was like new again.
