This is common and can be fixed by dropping and re-welding the joint.

Re: Advice for gear selection issues ..........

I have just been through the same, clutch wouldn't drag when sttod in gear at a junction, it would slip when I kickstart and pull the clutch, But I couldn't select neutral no matter how hard I tried whilst stood.

Re: Grrr! Lambrettas.

Dis-lodged wire on the ignition circuit in the headset at a guess.
Isolate the green from loom at the coil/cdi end and try to start it again, if it starts fault is in the loom/headset.
