Ok, 7,000km and 96 hours (4 days). Let's assume you can average 100km/h (which means breaking speed limits because you will pass through towns and need to refuel), then you have 26 hours left over for sleeping/eating.
On paper it sounds doable but the reality is that if you are riding at night then you have wildlife to contend with - Melbourne to Adelaide is reasonably safe but once you leave Port Augusta you are in kangaroo central. When I rode through there I was dropping down to 40kmh due to the amount of wildlife beside the road once the sun set. I also can't recall what time the servos shut - something to consider unless you plan on carrying reserve supplies.
Best of luck mate but I prefer suicide by less painful means.

P.S. If this is a rehearsal for your x-Asia trip I can assure you that no matter how bad the wildlife in oz may be, the vehicular (and other) traffic throughout Asia is going to slow you down even further. Its doable, if you're lucky, but frankly why would you bother?
