Shifting with a new clutch cable

Just a quick observation....

My clutch cable must have stretched out over the last 25,000 miles so gradually that I didn't notice the change until it was close to failure.  I'll tell you when I did notice a difference...when it was replaced!  At first I was having a hard time shifting because the travel was a lot bigger than it had been.  It seemed like I was letting the clutch out forever before it started to ease into gear!

I may do a little research and see if its able to be adjusted without screwing up the clutch plates like the previous owner did by skipping the original maintenance and not getting it dialed in properly.
