I mentioned in another thread here, but you can perform a nandroid backup without using cwm or rebooting...
[TOOL] Onandroid - Nandroid Backup Without Rebooting [Update!][v5.9] - xda-developers
It is called OnAndroid.
You can't install a Rom without rebooting, but you can perform backups while you play with the phone, and when you have a CWM you can always return to that state.

According to the posted thread, you need cwm to install the app.

You could also simply extract the zip and copy the files yourself and reboot.
But if I posted two files and said put these in these two directories and install, who would want to do that?
Also, you could install from the market and it can install from there.
Anyway, Mr. Peanut has provided the needed files already.

I don't know anything about the motion but if you have adb working on your computer you might be able to use romdump to backup your system rom it worked for me before I had cwm. Here is a link android.podtwo.com/romdump/

What needed files? ....... Where?........
In the thread,[TOOL] Onandroid - Nandroid Backup Without Rebooting [Update!][v5.9] - xda-developers, there is a flashable zip that contains the two files...
They suggest flashing the zip and then runing it through terminal emulator...That may be a bit confusing for the average...
So you can download an app free from the market instead if you'd like...

That should allow anyone with a root device to perform a backup without rebooting or needing CWM.
I should have made it more clear in my posts, and I apologize for that.
This app make it easy for anyone.
