Keep practicing. When I was learning to drive (in a manual) I spent the first few driver's ed lessons on an empty road stopping, starting, going through first three gears, stopping again, and over and over again for an hour. Don't overthink it. This should be done automatically, it's a skill (in neuropsychological sense of the word) not knowledge. You don't learn skills by thinking, you learn them by repeating actions.

Also, in all MT cars I have driven some gas was needed. I haven't driven a twin, but I doubt they are different here, especially that there is not so much of torque. Ultimately, your right foot will go down while your left foot is going down and you won't even think or know or notice how it happens. Just keep practicing.
