The problem with dry clutch is that they drag badly when they heat up. The advantage is that they engage positively.
So, for a race bike, dry clutch doesn't hurt, but for a street bike, dry clutch bites the big one.

Dry clutches sound like shit, but elitist folks with italian bikes like to think they sound nice.
I for one do not like a bike that idles with the sound of a can of nuts and bolts being shaken vigorously. Sounds retarded.
