As long as you can engage every gear completely, then it's not the clutch cable. Leave the cable adjusted to where it fully engages & disengages at whatever point you're comfortable with. Punching it in 2nd would definitely cause a weak clutch to slip.

I vote clutch is bad. Are you making lots of torque?
