Is it true that its recommended to change the fork also when youre changing out the whole clutch ? Im getting a new clutch kit this week so I would like to know .

For a peace of mind? Sure along with a Honda throw-out bearing. Last thing, you want to do is drop the tranny again because the clutch fork snapped.

Have replaced two clutches and never did replace the release fork. I did break the bracket the the fork pivots on.

Best prices I found for clutch kits were from http://www.clutchcityonline.com/ First one I bought was OEM. Second was ACT pressure plate with the rest OEM parts. Teaching a friend's son to autocross was extremely hard on OEM clutch.
