I work with such situations daily - Heres what to do:

1) You have reported it to Aus Post. Step 1 is Done
2) Ring Aus Post again and ask for the name of their insurer and also ask them to send you a copy of "guidelines for making a claim".
3) Ring your insurer now (if you have one) and give them the name of Aus Posts insurer (they will now do all the work for you.)
4) If you dont have an insurer, ring Aus Posts insurer yourself and report the incident - you will probably have to now write a letter of demand and send it to Aus Post's insurer (make sure to cc Aus Post).
5) I hope you have taken photo's of the damage - keep copies and also send these to the insurer.

Sit back and try not to worry (these things take ages) - they will most probably inspect the bike for damage - if they find paint or other scrapes you have a good chance.
