You should be able to find nuetral without the clutch but it could damage your gearbox.

they are a wet clutch and if they are dry can give the illusion of being in gear still.
If you are trying to find neutral to start the bike then you should be able to gently roll the bike back and forwards a little and click it threw the gears.
I had an issue a while ago with one of my crappy old road bikes that had been sitting for a while. Just try roll the bike back and forwards and play with gear lever till you find neutral then start it up and let the oil wet all the clutch again and it should work ok.
btw just reread one of your posts and if you still have side cover off and are trying to work out if it is working you should be able to see the clutch move and allow the clutch plates to separate, if you have it in gear and just pull the clutch in it won't be free.

If you have the side cover off, you wont be able to see the clutch plates separate, you wont be able to try and engage the clutch as the cable is attached to the cover.. if thats what your getting at.
