Not to be an anal retentive enginerd but TECHNICALLY what you describe is not 'bleeding'. Bleeding is the process of opening a closed system to allow air to escape.

What you describe more closely resembles 'burping' like you would do on your cooling system.

Here, lemme help you out -



I'd absolutely do what you describe though ('cept at a lower rpm) before taking the beastie out on the road.
