I played around with mine a little Monday and it's starting to engage at around 3 inches off the back of the footbox, maybe even a little more. My pedal is at 8 inches with about 1 inch of play so it's all in and all out over a 4 inch pedal stroke. So it kind of depends on where you like the clutch action to be and how high you want the clutch pedal to rest.

Lippy - what size clutch master cylinder did they provide you with? I started out with a 3/4 inch but it made for a long throw to get full disengagement. I went to 7/8 to shorten it up some (feels about right for me now) but it increased the pedal pressure some which is a negative. But that is another element in the clutch system that you can play around with to get it to your satisfaction.

Just noticed above that you said you have a dual disc clutch. That may be another whole ball game so my comments may have no bearing.
