I have never actually heard their dry clutch in person, but I found a high quality sound clip of it online just today. I think they sound cool.
One of the coolest things I've heard is standing at the exit of Ducati World at Turn 1 for the Indy Gp and hearing all those bikes leave one by one after the race was over.

When Suzuki came out with their GSXR's in 85 or 86, they had a "750 Limited Edition" with a dry clutch: http://images.search.yahoo.com/image...mb=tU0PKU1pTRk. This is how it sounds: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SVKZwxAJUng
