Two Hawaiian songs. Title/ Artist please anybody??

[Funky_buddha]

Howzit to everybody from da chilly mainland of nor-cali, This is my first post, trying to jog my memory of two Hawaiian folk-rock tunes heard on the radio about 1979-1981, both were sung in Hawaiian: One was about a motorcycle; and had a funny "Brrum-ba-ba-bup" refrain (like a motorbike changing gears) maybe called "Mokokaikale" sorry if my spelling wen bad already...
The second was a funny song about U.FO.s also in Hawaiian.
Sound familiar to anybody??
Mahalo's and much Aloha,

As far as a motorcycle song...I think the song may be by Na Keonimana (The Gentlemen). This group consisted of members, Mike Kaawa, Keli'i Tau'a, Allen Pokipala and I forget the last members name. I know for sure it's off their first LP. As for the ufo song, that's by the Peter Moon band. It's off the Tropical Storm album. And the title is U.F.O. Hope that helps.
