Adjusting clutch cables

Just wondering if there any good videos for tightening clutch cables on a new 2T Stella. I think my clutch lever is starting to feel a little less tight when I grip down on it to shift gears. My understanding is that when breaking in a 2T Stella this happens and that there shouldn't be any real play in the handle.
I've seen the Scooterville #3 video on Youtube, but it's grainy and hard to make out. Plus, I'm not sure if that addresses the whole clutch handle tension thing in the first place.
Just wondering if in all my searching for resources, I've overlooked something.
Thanks!

I have some links for some help with this; I'll get them posted tomorrow.

No videos, but plenty of instruction and pics. Much of it is from Stellaspeed.

Thanks, Eric.
Anything you can provide is much appreciated. I think I have all the tools. 'Just need a little "knowledge."
Again, thanks!

I haven't had a chance to look at my Stella to compare/take pics yet, but try these:

And I did find a video, too…

At about the 7 minute mark.

Thanks. Eric! I've never heard of Stella Speed, but the photos and info seem very good. I need to read the posts a little more to make sure I understand what is being said, but this addresses exactly what I needed.
Thanks a bunch!!!
