Default Clutch slack

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Just wondering if anyone can help me out on this one so I can fix this myself?I noticed that after a lot of riding that my clutch lever was getting a little slack so I used the "barrel adjustment" on the lever itself to help get it back to the right stiffness I'm used to.Here's my question-Should I adjust the clutch down where it attatches to the engine to bring it back and then make adjustments on the Barrel adjuster again to make up for cable stretch?
