You more than likely have an issue with the kickstand switch or clutch lever switch. A lot of the time the bike requires you to have the kickstand up or the clutch in when you go into gear, i would check both of those.
If it is an issue with the clutch the bike would lurch forward when put into gear, is that happening?
what does a "drop foot" entail? if you cant shift its bad linkage or bad tranny. are any parts of the shift linkage touching each other or the case? can you push the bike with the clutch in and in gear, if you cant your tranny is toast.
whats happening is your clutch plates are sticking together. try tightening up the clutch cable a bit. im not sure if it is cable, it may be hydraulic? if it is, then bleed the clutch to get any air out of the system. if that doesnt work, then try an oil change. sometimes old, thick oil wont let the clutch plates seperate, and you get that jerking when your engine is cold. use a light oil. maybe 5-30 or 10-30. a light oil will make it easier for the clutch to disengage.
could be few probs, carbon build up on piston crown try a good cleaner fuel additive, your exaust is leaking or blowing allowing air to be sucked back in on revdown as well as you could have a inlet fault overfueling leaving to much unburnt fuel to enter your exaust, might be simple fix by just replacing the air filter and checking for burn marks around the air intake.
