I thought there were two tamperproof screws near the bottom of that assembly to hold it in place. I seem to remember there have been posts about them coming loose, and assuming that there wasn't any evildoer who intentionally tried to break your ignition lock, perhaps they both came loose and fell out of your bike. If you go to the sticky thread area at the top of the new-gen tech section, you should be able to find a link to see the micro-fiche parts diagram of your bike, and you can see how it is supposed to be secured.

Hey thanks I looked up and now I know what I need to fix but where can I buy the pards needed?

You can buy replacement bolts/screws at the hardware store. Ace, Lowes, Home Depot, etc. You would have to remove the ignition from the front triple tree where it is mounted to. Has you bike been tampered with? It shouldn't be loose like that.

I recommend you read and follow this link: http://www.ninjette.org/forums/showthread.php?t=110442

The bolt I circled is designed to not be able to removed once installed. You will have to drill the head of the bolt off in order to remove the ignition switch. Once you do so, you will have to heat up the remaining threaded portion of the bolt since it is threadlocked into the triple tree. Then use some vice grips or a bolt extractor to remove it. Then get some new bolts to replace the ones you took out unless you want your igntion lock to be tamperproofed again.
