If you shift up on the gear lever, the RPMs will drop and the bike will run cooler Tongue

Most four strokes for that, I wouldn't worry about it.

Is that riding or idling on the kickstand that caused that?

My 4T MX bikes will do this idling on the kick stand, never had an issue once moving.

Never seen a 4T air cooled bike i've owned do this however

I've never taken a close look at my header while riding. My XR650R, CRF450R, DR350, DR250, TL1000s, and XB12 will all do that at idle.
