Yes - and you have to be exceptionally discipled, but a huge part of the GA stuff you can control (by not flying in marginal conditions, not trying to extend your range, always using checklists, etc).

But you can do all that on a motorcycle and still get creamed.

It does require you to honestly assess your ability to say "no" when conditions aren't right.

Basically what I'm getting at is there are activities that are dangerous but some the danger comes from you and others the danger comes from outside forces/other people. (Sure, I guess you could argue that you could just not ride your bike when there's other people on the road, but that's not practical).
