After replacing bushings at my 914/4 -72 tailshift and re-adjusting the linkage I have a almost perfect shift in any gears and at any speed.
The only problem (right now) is that when starting cold in the morning (say 50-55F) there is a grind when shifting into 2nd. This is during the first minutes only, after that shifting into 2nd is like a dream again. The grind is wery noisy, almost as I try to get in reverse.

I run Swepco 201.

Any ideas?

Remove the shifter assembly and carefully inspect the lockout plate and the condition of the lever. Odds are both are worn. Plates are still available, I believe. (Part number for the plate is 901 724 017 00.) If not, or if you're willing to put forth A little effort and can weld, you can repair the plate and the shaft by hardfacing both and grinding/filing them back to where they should be. A MIG welder should do the job right.
