Default pops out of 2nd gear

When I downshift into 2nd at low speed/rpm, a moment or two after I let off the clutch it pops out of 2nd gear. This has only happened 3 times since I bought the car last week. No grinding, and when I put it back in 2nd, it stays. For those of you that have had transmission issues, or rebuilds/replacements what was the problem? As I understand several of us here have had new synchros or tranny replacement, as this is one of the weakpoints of our cars. Please if anyone could elaborate on their situation with the insight'd be great.

common cause of popping out of gear on hondas in general are:
synchros
motor/tranny mounts
bent shift fork
dog teeth
shift sleeves
low fluid

I would like to know more about your experiences, specifically with the insight, since it may have it's own main likely cause apart from other hondas.

Any input'd be great!

here is the response I got on h-t:
