Those are both GREAT bikes. Get whichever one you
like better. And don't forget to factor in insurance!
Insurance on bikes is pretty sick.

But, no matter what else you do, I CAN'T STRESS THIS
ENOUGH: Take a motorcycle riding course!

Seriously. First of all, you'll get a break on
insurance. Secondly, if you complete the course
successfully, you'll usually get a waiver so you don't
have to do the riding test at the DMV for your motorcycle
license. Also, if you don't know (or know well) how to
ride a bike, you'll get a chance to learn on someone
else's bike. So if you drop it and scratch it up,
no problem!

You'll also be able to make a more informed decision
about what bike to get. The instructors will probably
be pretty knowledgable about bikes, and should be able
to give you the pros and cons of the Triumph and the
ZX-9.

The Motorcycle Safety Foundation gives good courses.
You can find out info about a local one to you by
hitting the MSF website, [ http://www.msf-usa.org. ]
