3 years sitting in Garage. Clutch not engaging

Hello All - I just recently was given my boss´s old motorcycle (my first) and need some asisstance getting it running.

I took out the battery and am going to fill it with distilled water and then charge it. Does anyone know how long I will need to charge it?

Also, I plan on flushing out the gas tank but am not exactly sure how to take it off.

Lastly, When trying to shift through the gears I didn´t feel a distinction (but felt clicks) beteen any of them .. (couldn´t find neutral).

My buddy who is pretty experienced wasn´t sure what was going on either.

Any help would be great.

Thanks
