Teaching Harry the Patronus Charm was in no way a risk. Telling off Molly, well, I suppose it depends on how much you think it would have gotten Remus in trouble with the Order.
The only really risky thing was joing the Order right out of school, and that I'd say was a lot peer pressure there. Remus seems to be susceptible to other people's opinions.
I would say that, rather than not sticking his neck out when there is no reward, it is only when there is a disadvantage for him that he won't stick his neck out.
Err, maybe we have different definition of 'stick his neck out'. I see it as doing something when there is a definite risk attached.
You see it as... doing something when you don't have to whether or not there is risk attached?
