Is that with the engine running. If the engine is not running you cannot get second gear upwards.
Only know this after trying for a week to solve a gearbox problem on my old Harris before Rich put me straight. luckily just before I stripped the engine.

As Padders says, you can only get 1st & neutral when stationary!
To get 2nd onwards, you must be moving (with engine running - DERRRR!).
The gearbox has a ball bearing which stops 2nd being selected, unless things are moving, ie: you're actually riding the bike
My Zed is difficult to get neutral when stopped at the best of times. I usually try to catch it as I come to a stop
