If your fork is aluminum...it's prone to failure. If you have a steel fork you should be good to go.

It looks like you have a later model with an O.E.M. steel fork. If a magnet sticks to it, it's not the infamous 'death fork'.

Yes the magnet does stick to it but not on my dad's has a "death fork" lucky me! thanks for the help.
