07 R1 - Flushed Coolant today, did I 'burp' it right?

I picked up a 2007 R1 at the beginning of summer and got around to my first maintenance. Changed the oil and oil filter, which was much easier than my R6 was. Tossed in a K&N Air Filter. And finally flushed the coolant as it was running high in temp.

So I drained out the coolant, ran some distilled water until it was clear, then filled it up with water + wetter better. I think left the cap off and started it until it got to 200 degrees... I was expecting more coolant to burp out but it only flowed over a few times, never exactly shot out (similar to a Youtube vid I watched). I think topped it off, filled up the reservoir, and called it good.

Did I do anything wrong? Should have I left it on longer until coolant really shot out?
