Default headlight on 08 Springer

My headlight relaly shakes up and down when the bike is running. I checked all the bolts and they are tight. The entire assy is rubber mounted. Is this normal for the movement?

Thanks

Mine bounces and if I turn the high bright on, the road dissapears because the light shines straightup! CALLING BATMAN.
I tryed to adjust it but it wouldnt adjust. The low bright how ever takes the high brights place every F*ckin person on the road high brights me @ night blinding me. The low bright is set high because I can see a far way down the road with low beam.

Same problem on my 08 springer
Real pain to adjust height since you have to loosen up mount,guess at setting, ride down road and most likely readjust
They all seem to be that way though, my buddy's 2003 has the rubber mount
I think it's more noticiable now since the headlight output is brighter than before
