I don't do that exactly, but I NEVER give the bike any revs at all, until it's been idling for a little bit, so that I know oil pressure has begun to build, and I do always watch for the oil light to go out.

If the light never goes out, then you know you've got an oil pressure issue.
I think that is a bit paranoid but couldn't hurt.
