I do mine cold. But, I will also adjust the cable a bit after a ride or two to make it the way I like it.. As for slippage, since you have so much more torque being transferred trying to get the bike moving, I'd say it would probably slip down low before at high speed.. Either way, the clutch slipping should be noticed by a lack of speed change with RPM change..
