Transmission lunges in 5th gear when decelerating

Can someone tell me why my R850R transmission in 5th gear slips/shifts/drags when I let off the throttle to decelerate. It only does this in the top 5th gear and no other gear. It feels like something in the transmission is shifting/dragging within a few seconds after backing off the throttle during engine breaking. I experienced the same thing on a 1994 R1100S that I owned previously.
