Knocked this out today (so much for that "not gonna mod the new car" thing). I went the "remove the pin; spin the fork" route and found 1-1/2 turns to be just about perfect. I don't know if it needed it, but I went ahead and adjusted the sensor too to be safe.
Thanks to the OP for the walkthrough and to all the rest for the helpful comments and discussion, the clutch on my car feels like I expected it to from day one.
