Jees, that's a tough one. But then when I bought mine, it wasn't running. I "felt" the cyl. compression through the kicker. I rocked it back and forth and shifted through the gears. I suppose you could put it on the center stand, have the seller hold down the front end and shift through the gears while running in place. The clutch was real sticky at first. I'd get her running, push her as fast as I could manage, hop on and shift into gear real quick. Eventually she freed up. Let us know if you get her. Post a pic.
Best,
