      Of-course it's a great choice mate. It's like graduating from KG to MBA! The R15 is the best machine till date and one can definitely go for it blindly. But, u have to make sure that the bike which ur gonna buy is properly maintained and been run-in properly and not something that's been thrashed and wanted to wash-off . Think experienced R15 experts can help on that!

                AND few MORE QUESTION,,,
                will r15 be more fuel efficient than fz by riding economically?
                how abt the maintenance cost of r15
                is r15's rear tyre better than fz's rear tyre
                is it easy to opt from a drum rear brake[fz's] to rear disk brake[r15's] do we need any experience?
                how abt the fuel level in r15..i have heard tht fuel injected bikes shud always have petrol in their tank.we should never make the tank go dry,is it so?

                          I own a r15. M getting about 40 kmpl from my bike, i guess FZ gets 35. Maintainance is not an issue, the parts are a little costly, but not too costly. Yes the Tyre provided stock is too good. It inspires confidence in you and makes you wanna go knee dragging, although i haven't done it yet . Have no clue about Fz tyre but alll in all i guess they have the same compound which matters while leaning and not the section (size) of the tyre. Yes it is easy to get used to the rear disc from a FZ. No need of any outstanding experience .
