Default 08 FXD Clutch issue before I take it in..

My 08 fxd had its throwout bearing go out... I replaced, adjusted the clutch, and adjusted the clutch cable... Now my clutch is not engaging at all, and whenever I pull the clutch lever (based off adjustment) its either way too tight with too much play, or has completely too much slack... any help here would be much appreciated before I take it in... Thank you

I'd look at the adjustment to the slack in the cable down near the engine.
