Loose Headset on a Pista

I took my Pista (a 2005) out for a ride today and noticed that there was some play in the headset so I went home and adjusted it...

... so I know you aren't supposed to overtighten the stem cap bolt, but if I only slightly tighten it I get play in the headset...

So I tightened it pretty good, until there was no play at all... the bolt was pretty much threaded all the way in until it was tight... I can still turn the handlebars freely...

Is there any problem with this? At least there's no play in the headset now right?
