Wait a minute. With the primary you have to check the level by looking at it, but tranny you just dump it in?????
I have had leaks, and even had migration into tranny when sprocket shat seal was bad. Plus the M8s So I wouldn't cut. If a guy really wanted to cut it off and save old one.
My 5 speed if I remember correctly had wear marks from wear clutch cable moved across it. I think I replaced it on two of my bikes, though not sure if an issue on 6 speeds. 20 years ago there was a few threads about the sticks going down and destroying trannys.

Contination of a different thread, where I said for primary oil changes I just dump the amount of fluid called for in manual. Where he said you have to check it. So I pointed out the the contradiction,
Not the worse idea.
