new ZXR owner advice needed. please help

Hi guys,
I know I should post this in the kawasaki section, which I did but I really need so advice and I am really worried and concerned because of the bad experience 1 year ago when I bought a zxr and only had it for 48 hours because I didn't know better and it turned out to be a dog so I sold it 1/2 the price I paid in 48 hrs. So, I just want to see if it happens again to me with this ZXR.
I only have the bike for over a week and something unusual happened today on my way to work and I really need some advice and see if it was me or the bike having problem.
Ok, I love the bike and it a very clean and well looked after bike and everything was perfect but today something unusual happened.
I notice the the idle rpm was lower then the usual 1500rmp (just under 1000rmp) as a result I stall the bike 3 times getting off the traffic and I also notice the temp level only at the 1/4 level throughout the trip even when I was filtering the slowly, usually it is at the 1/2 level.
I am worried! I know lower temp is good for the engine but the unusual low idle rmp and low temp make me feel the bike having problem.
Can you guys advise on this please. It is very cold today and I didn't warm the bike up before my ride (only about 45 seconds) could that be the reason?
