    Looks like clutch dog problems. Not terribly hard to replace, it needs seals anyway so it has to come apart. The fork that engages the clutch could be worn as well and not fully setting the dogs.

    It’s important to keep the rpm’s low and engage the gear shifter firmly, like you mean it. Gradual engagement at higher RPM’s can cause damage to the clutch dogs.
