If you listen to the video, you'll notice a scraping/screeching noise as bike moves off after the initial start up.
I only picked it up from watching the paddock video audio.
Might have to listen a few times to spot it.
Not wheels or brakes - checked those, sounds more that it's running at motor speed, if that makes sense?
Much appreciated for any suggestions.

 
i'll have a listen with my headphones on when i finsih work, hard to hear over the fans here ;)
 
Did it happen before you moved? or only after? I assume nothing is fouling on the tyres.

Another closer video would help

Appears to be a random as opposed to per revolution. Warped disc you would know, damaged abs ring you would know, possibly disc on caliper. had it on mine (gen 4, also RSV4) where the right hand fork bottom where the pinch bolts hold the spindle sits in too far on the spindle causing the caliper to not centralise. Worth a look.
 
Thanks for all the suggestions. I've had it checked out by my BMW dealer, the clutch deck height had reduced down to the minimum, so a replacement clutch pack ordered, and all should be good.
