A bit difficult to read your post but a bike with that low mileage for it's age has been unused for much of the time. I'd suggest checking the gear lever pivot and linkage joints, if they are stiff the lever won't return to it's "home" position. Also there are highly regarded independents on here, top quality work and a lot cheaper than a franchised dealer.

Use the search function. Oh, welcome to the site.
