Nathan, You didn't mention which Triumph model so here's a general overview. Any wet sump engine that's still running and tipped 90D runs the risk of not being able to pump oil from the crankcase...very bad. Any engine can only be expected to run only a couple of seconds before damage in that condition.
The 955 Triumph triple is more troublesome because the crankcase breather is on the LHS of the engine, rather than centrally located as usual. In left side tip overs, even if not running oil can enter the airbox if tipped far enough.
Is the seller willing to start the engine? If not I'd walk away.
Brad
