I suspect that streamlining an off road bike for riding in the back country would be very difficult, due to the amount of moving around on the bike that is needed for keeping the bike on its wheels. You would need to make some kind of crash protection for the body work, as well as compromise the body work for rider movement and control...
I have started work on streamlining my 2007 Kawasaki KLR650 which I plan to use on gravel and dirt roads as well as highways, but I will not be riding it "off road".
Like alvaro84 suggests I doubt that there is much that can be done that would get major improvements in fuel economy on off road bikes, used in off road riding.
