The rubber dampers between the cylinder fins help dampen the vibration of the cooling fins on the cylinders and heads. I always remove them for better air flow though the fins and weight savings. I think they are more for sound dampening. I have never seen any issues with taking them out or noticed much sound increase. Oh wait it's a Ducati with a slightly baffled megaphone.
