Not fooked after all.Up date.
Dealer replaced the missing nuts and re torqued the rest of the header nuts.As the flange was vibrating on the header the knock sensor was picking this up an retarding the timing.Scared the shit out of me.Next time I'll know and so will everybody else.

Good!!
Now, check the rest of your bike out piece by piece! I'd look at every fastener to see if it was tight. Must have been a Monday or late Friday bike.....

Ironically every other fookin bolt on this fooker seems to be red loctited . Ask anybody who has put on a set of Heli bars.Those nuts on the headers should have been lock nuts.

What knock sensor? There ain't no fookin' knock sensor. Somebody's suffering from a knowledge deficit.

Seems you're correct.Picked up the bike at lunch and asked him about it.Says it doesn't have one.His mistake.Bike is now running fine.Must be loosing mine mind as I could have sworn it wasn't running on all 4.
