Too much oil?

What would the result be of overfilling the tranny on a KDX (or any motorcycle for that matter)?
The inspection window on my gearbox always appears "empty", i.e. I can't see the oil level. Before going out on the bike, I always check the oil level and top it up. Over the past few weeks I have noticed that the gears have become "stiffer". The last time I went out I added a bit more oil, only to find that it started pouring out of the case. I rode it like that and then left the motorcycle standing for about two weeks. Trying to ride it on the weekend I found that the clutch would not didengage fully - no power in any of the gears. Could this be due to the excess oil?

Regards,
