Congratulations to you. Great choice for a first bike, in my opinion. Upright stance, low weight and centre of gravity, great torque that means you don't have to pay as much attention to what gear you're in.
I've found the tires noticeably slippy at <5 deg until they warm up. Thankful for the abs. Once they're warm though, they've got surprisingly good traction for what look like knobbies.
If I were you, I'd get heated grips on it asap. They're super convenient compared to heated gear on you. Even if they aren't as effective in very cold weather, they make borderline temp trips much more pleasant.

. I had a similar experience with the tires too. Almost dropped it just leaving the house a couple of weeks ago, about 4 degrees C, on a sharp 90 degree turn, when the rear slid out. Luckily I recovered. I always knew it could be an issue, but experiencing it was a good, humbling lesson on how slippery cold tires can be. I probably won't ride on days colder than today (unless I find some deals on heated gear), but interested on how you find the bike if you keep riding in colder temps. Ride safe!
