The '''Kawasaki GA''' was a [[street motorcycle]] manufactured by [[Kawasaki]] in several variants. The variants are: '''GA1''' (1969-1970), '''GA1A''' (1971-1974), '''GA2A''' (1971-1974), '''GA3''' (1969-1970).
The GA was an excellent starter motorcycle with its light weight and simple design. The GA withstood abuse extremely well including over-revving of the engine without seizing-up.
