Default crashed the bike

Ummm so ya
took a bad turn and crashed the bike.... just wondering if i could get some tips from other f4 owners andi have a few questions if anyone can help that would be greatly appreciated
so the bike smoked a curb... i think i hit an oil patch and the front end crashed into a curb... the front rim is bent, the forks are bent.
i was just wondering if anyone can help:

should i try to fix it myself? i am pretty mechanically inclined, like i do all the mechanical work on my car myself and work as an automotive electrictian so i have access to shop and tools etc.

is the f4 and f4i parts compatible? i am shopping for parts local and on ebay... and it seems that many of the sellers say they are the same part (part #'s)? i think i need new wheel/brakes, forks, and a rad... are the parts the same?

finally my forks are bent I have been looking on ebay... and i found some parts is just the forks, and then other part that is the fork and triple tree or steering piece whatever it is called.... can i just order the forks and use my existing triple tree or do they have to be changed together???

Any help appreciated!!!! Thanks a lot

John
