Default Clutch adjustment at hand control

Is there any adjustment at the hand control or is it just in the primary? Its really sloppy and I'm leaving tomorrow early for Laconia. Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
Jim

Not at the lever - its under that rubber boot on the left frame downtube.

It's best to do both adjustments. Don't short change on this one.

Do a complete clutch adjustment, clutch pack and cable. It's best to do this on a cold engine/powertrain. The freeplay at the lever is adjusted on the cable next to the downtube. Using a dime at the lever for amount of freeplay makes it that much easier.
