Some intake noise is epic, I also have a serious warm spot for the whine of gear driven cams, the 'whap' of straight cut primary gears and the jangle of a dry clutch.
I distinctly dislike any camchain rattle. Generally the racier the engine, the more exciting the noises for me at least. Although the rustle of valvetrain on ancient Brit singles is also somewhat therapeutic.
