Squeek from the clutch..
Its practically a brand new clutch and now all of a sudden after 1200 miles on the clutch its started to make a squeeky noise when i press the peddle down to the firewall.. everything was replaced when the install was done.. the fly wheel is oem.. and the clutch is CM stage 3 w/ hd pressure plate.. any clue wahts up? engadgement is fine through all gears.. nice and strong however on some occasions in second gear i cannot get it out and i have to double clutch for it to release.. and while this is happening rpm's will hit a little above 1k then drop when i can get it out of second.. anyone??
was the ball and fork lubricated properly during install?
When I bought my GS-R, I found that the almost brand new clutch (former owner had just had it installed) hadn't had this done, my mechanic had to drop the transmission to take care of it, and the symptoms were exactly as you describe.

Check your clutch master cylinder and slave cylinder dood. It may have a slight leak. 
It might be leaking like mine..I get a squeek. Does the pedal still feel even? Cause when I get the squeek, the pedal isn't as smooth to press down.

A while back a topic came up in the itr forums and I saved what he said in my notepad. JSIR wrote this...
I started to get a squeaky clutch on my car recently and I remember seeing complaints the same thing in past months. My squeak really sounded like it was coming from the clutch pedal area under the dash of the car, but when I got my wife to push in the clutch with my ears in the engine bay it was definitely coming from the clutch fork/slave cylinder area. Some of the noise was just transferring to the clutch pedal making it tricky to diagnose. So here is what I did. I ended up pulling off the square shaped boot that goes over the clutch fork that mounts into the block -square shaped hole. I slid it as far to the right as possible so it was over the clutch slave cylinder as much as possible. Doing that exposes the clutch slave cylinder rubber boot. The clutch slave cylinder boot is one of those thin kinked style boots (similar looking to the one that is used on the throttle cable). I pulled the slave cylinder boot as far to the right as possible exposing the metal slave cylinder rod within. I put a good dose of high quality brake lube grease on the metal rod and slid the boot back over to the left in tight position up against the end of the rod where it meets the clutch fork. Then I put the square rubber cover back over the clutch fork and pushed it tightly into the block opening at all edges. Upon completion I had my wife press the clutch again, on the second push of the clutch the noise went away instantly, and it has not returned since. So it looks like a fix for that type of noise, if it is happening to you I would give it a shot, takes about 5 mins to complete. As I now think about the way the slave cylinder works, it might be best to apply the grease with the clutch pedal depressed, having someone push the clutch in and hold it while you lube the slave cylinder rod. I didn't do it that way but thinking back that may be a better method, and that may be why it took two pedal applications for the noise to disappear, as the grease had to work its way further into the cylinder. I may try it that way next time, but for now it seems to have worked the way that I did it. hth.

haha hey Ken funny talkin to you on h-t, not used to seein you on here (lol t-i). anyway yea remember that post a while back in the summer. i tired that but i still gte the squeek it comes and goes. i got a new slave/master cyl. and new clutch pressure plate and re-surf flywheel. i may just take it to honda dealer?
I had this once in a while, so I researched it. I read much about the slave cylinder that needs some greasing up... but I looked at mine, got too lazy, and forgot all about it. It doesn't happen enough for me to do work.
