There are enough triples still around that parts are available. There are a few like the ignition pickups that you have to hunt for on the used market, but most things are either still available, like bearings, or are being reproduced, like pistons by Wossner and Wiseco.

I just had my transmission and engine bottom end apart for the first time a couple years ago and didn't have any trouble getting the parts I needed to replace all the replaceable stuff like seals, bearings, shims, circlips, etc. And there are a couple good crankshaft rebuilders here in the US, so that was easy to get done too.

We grumble and shake fingers at guys who part out old motorcycles, but if it weren't for them, things like transmission gears would be very expensive from the custom gear cutters.
