Default another clutch adjustment question

Quick question... can a clutch adjustment at the clutch basket be done without draining the primary oil?

Yes, just take of the derby conver. If the fluid is at proper level, none will come out.

If the bike is on its kick stand fluid will spill out. Bike has to be in a straight up riding position.
