As your bike starts and runs until you try to engage gear it strongly suggests that it is something to do with the safety system which prevents riding with the stand down. The owner's manual has a flow-chart type table showing the conditions for correct operation of the ignition etc. It may be a bad earth or similar but is very likely to be the continuity of the side-stand switch.
