Holy moly.. what build quality and detail for what really isn't all that much money. Installed the clutch first... so how the heck do I know when it is adjusted properly? I am assuming that either setting the adjuster to 1 or 6 and then adjusting the cable nuts I should see some sort of indication of where the nuts should be adjusted to?

Any tips?

the #'s are there to adjust the distance from the lever
to the grip. they don't really have anything to do with adjusting the throw of the clutch. to adjust the clutch
just tighten the cable down into the lever until the clutch
will engage at about a 1/4 of a pull (some people like it to engage sooner, some like it later) i like it to engage sooner
like at about 1/8th of a pull, that way it's easier to use
2 fingers at traffic lights and such. once you have it
where you want it just tighten down the lock nut so it
won't loosen.

Thanks.. I was expecting it to "bottom" out at some point and then I'd know where the adjustment was. Guess I have to get the bike running again to really test it out.

They will probably be the next thing I add to my bike (once my new Triumph gold fat bars finally come in).
