I wonder if you could cut out some of the rear roof and do a bubble matching the Aero-Template.
Picture this as a starting point: Suzuki Mighty Boy

What I just proposed would help eliminate a huge tapering cantilever of a rear end.
I was under the impression that Australia was pretty strict on what modifications they allow to road going vehicles. If this is the case, then unseen modifications such as a belly pan might be your better option.
