So I put the bike in second gear, hold the clutch, ride down the hill (it is pretty steep) hit top speed, release the clutch,(hopefully starting the bike) then hold the clutch again to counter losing control correct?

Was the key on?
The higher the gear the easier the motor will turn over. I always use 2nd or 3rd gear, but I haven't push started a bike in over 30 years I think.
