I got a knife scrapped off the remaining dirty bits from the old gasket, then cleaned with spirits then put it on.
As for heat cycles, start it up then just blipping the throttle if it doesn't stay ticking over. Mine didn't like sitting with the choke on, so flip the choke straight off and then leave it to tick over, then let it get warm, then hit the kill switch go watch TV or something for about half hour, go back out and check if its stone cold again, rinse and repeat three times.
Job jobbed. Mine was good to go then, been pinning it and everything. And it hasn't blown up, nor is it overheating.
BTW, the bolts I did in a diagonal motion, left back nut, then right front nut and vice versa, don't do them tight until after they're all tight, not sure how true it is, but apparently it cracks the head or something similar, its bad for it so people say.
EDIT:
Also, don't forget for them 300 miles you should have been doing this warm up procedure (not the three heat cycles the idling) before going anywhere. Before even pulling off that engine should have been warm from just ticking over or blipping. Well the first 50-100 miles, then the rings and piston should be bedded in.

Uh, so because you can't be bothered to use a bus whilst getting your gasket fixed, you'd do damage to your engine and rather blow it up?
You're making your bike run hot, this is like running it without 2 stroke oil. You're running it hot, so its a matter of time until it goes bang, as soon as you get that bike warm, I bet its over-heating.
Nope its not that i cannot be botherd its the fact it cost me almost a £20 a week on bus fair, and nope she hardly ever runs hot her temp gauge is always close to the bottom and it does work :)
