Motorcycle bike rack

As a cyclist, I want a way to transport my bicycle on my motorcycle. I've found many custom builds and there is even 2x2 cycles who makes one but doesn't make it for the RX3 layout plus I want something that kept the front wheel on the bike. So I've prototyped out of wood a base rail system and attached a Yakima Frontloader roof rack and it seems to work well. Following the lead of 2x2 cycles I used a strap around the stem, attached to the crash bars to cinch the bike down removing a lot of the load on the rear of the bike. Now I just need to find someone who can weld this up for real for me. Know of anyone in the Seattle area?
