Default Is the clutch engagement point adjustable?

Mine engages really far up from the floor and I'd love to get it closer... any way to adjust it, or could bleeding the clutch slave help... or am I SOL?

Default Nope. You have a hydraulic clutch, which is not adjustable like the old types of mechanical

clutches which use a clutch cable.

Just an FYI: the clutch shares the brake fluid.
