In regards to the Dry clutch being loud.. I learned from the tech and from just looking at how it works/buying a new clutch, that it is loud ONLY if your basket and plates are VERY worn out. A new dry basket and plates fit almost perfectly together and therefore there is almost no clank clank clank form the plates and basket hitting each other..
so.. LOUD clutch= worn basket or not properly set up clutch.

just my .00000000001 cents

My clutch was loud from the factory. Yes, they get louder as they wear, but unless you have aftermarket basket and plates, it's never going to be "quiet"...

I put an OEM Basket and the Barnett plates. They fit snug.. but I am still to hear it myself since my bike is at the shop. I am hoping really that it will be a LOT quieter than the worn out clutch I had.. but I don't want it to be quiet.. i want to hear it is there.. chiki chaka chiki chaka ..  that's a weird illustration for sound isn't it..

well from what you posted, i think anything is better than the clutch you had before, that one had too many pieces. it wont be too loud to start, but will gradually get louder, also if you have the stock cover installed or an aftermarket cover will make a difference too.

YOu are right my friend! That clutch was a topic for whole other thread with pics and drama involved.. haha..  [moto]

The lightweight baskets used on later bikes are quieter.  So are the aftermarket lightweight ones. 

The dry clutch also has the advantage of not dumping friction material into your engines oil supply and allows you to run any kind of oil without affecting the clutch.

advantage: it's just F-n cool

disadvantage: people constantly telling you something is wrongwith your bike.  Although it's not really a disadvantage it just shows their lack of knowledge.
