Cold oil. Normal "creeping" of the clutch because it is bathed in oil. Switch to a lighter weight oil. This time of the year there is always some creeping and that's the way it is. There is a neutral lock on the lever....it works, right?????????

The Doctor is right. Creeping is reduced when everything is nice and warm from use. The hand clutch can be adjusted to reduce creeping in the neutral position, but it cannot be eliminated all together.
