Is the shifter itself stuck in second gear, or just the gear box? . . . in other words, can you move the shifter out of the second gear position?

If you can't move the shifter out of 2nd, then it's probably not the fork. The syncro is probably in a bind from hard shifting.... I'm guessing you either still have a stock shifter, or you don't have the stops adjusted correctly on an aftermarket unit.

If the shifter is stuck in the 2nd gear position, try jamming it further into 2nd a few times. Somethimes this will take some pressure off the bind and pop it loose.

The same thing happened to Chip's Bullitt at MMP and I was able to free it up this way. As far as I know, it has been working ever since. (Maybe Chip will chime in and add a little more input.
