UPDATE

Special thanks to the neighbor's kid, Jared (who's in the JROTC and constantly refers to me as Sir - a refreshing change to see in a teenager... but I digress). He pushed the clutch while I crawled underneath and measured the slave pushrod's stroke. Stroke = 9/16" Hmm...

That's right. Barely more than half an inch. Makes me wonder how I EVER switched gears. Also, when the clutch pedal is resting, the fork is fairly tight against the pushrod. Should this be slightly loose at rest?

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that extending or retracting the pushrod won't really change anything since the stroke length will still be the same. It looks to me like the system needs bled. Apparently, some air is absorbing some of the stroke travel. Please advise if you guys feel differently.
