Bleed the system, and verify that there are no leaks in the master or slave that would prevent full slave travel. Switch to Shell Rotella 5W-40W syn diesel oil, works great at less than half the price of MC gear oils. If problem persists pull the clutch and examine the basket for wear. Since its primarily a cold start problem, I'll bet the oil will solve it, although any wet clutch bike will drag slightly when cold.
