Fear not, we can talk you through his for darn sure. Firstly you need to check the drum spins freely by hand. To do that just release (by hand) the brake lever (that locks the drum shaft) and spin the drum (also by hand). It should rotate 2 or 3 revolutions with little resistance. If it doesn’t do that then you have problems. If it does then check out the clutch (as r600a refers) as it must be well worn and need replacing anyway. (Still available)
Brings back fond memories. Love these machines, as said almost certainly clutch is worn, also have a look at the bellows seal at the top of the gearbox support tube for signs of leaking. Won’t cause a spin problem as such but may tell you what sort of condition the power unit is in
