RE: 18t clutch bell
it doesn't matter what gearing you have but the bigger clutch bell the less acceleration you have, and the smaller spur gear the less acceleration you have, i use 14/52 for just bashing around, but for racing i use 18/49

The paper is just a recommendation for what they think is the best performance wise for different surfaces. It won't wear out your engine or jump the temps. So it's up to you.

RE: 18t clutch bell
If you are running the S-25, the 18T is not a good idea for grass. The engine may not have satisfactory power with this CB. Also, the stock clutch is not up for the action and running this CB may ruin the shoes. If you are running a hotter motor with aftermarket clutch shoes, then by all means, run the 18t.
