Geoff, an easier way to shorten the pull length on the cable would of been to simply cut off the nipple at the clutch adjuster end..........and fit an "adjustable stop".



this is a pic of one style ..............the other style....(which i have used and can highly recommend )..has an allen key pinch screw on either side of the cable stop....... and sandwiches the cable as it passes through.
A touch of loctite on the screws for peace of mind...............you must select the right hole size for the cable.
I was a little bit dubious before using it...........but once fit correctly..........they will "not" move.......and don t weaken the cable where sandwiched.

The type i used was a stainless steel nipple with high tensile allen key pinch screws.
I ll try and take a close up pic to post.
