Whether you keep it depends on how close to the edge you ride. If you like going fast and close I'd get a new frame but if you are careful it will probably last for years. Try taking the part of paint which has cracked if there is cracking below then replace but if is just a little bent don't worry. the paint job looks like powder coating this paint tends to be fairly brittle. The forks are a defo for replacement as the only way to get them to steer well again is to bend them back this work hardens the steel and makes it more brittle.
