Default throttle body moves

ok so i was removing my T.P.S. and my throttle body moved up. It does move up and down easy. Is this something i need to fix or is this the way it is? Note that my air cleaner is off so there is nothing really holding it in place. Thanks for the halp

Don't be alarmed. The throttle body connects to the intake manifold by a rubber doughnut style gasket. It is held in place by the air cleaner backing plate which is fastened by the breather bolts.

Here are a couple of Harley Microfiche parts finders.
I find these use full when working on the bike as it shows the location and the placement of parts on the bike.
