Most likely it's your primary clutch rollers at idle. It's a known item, but not a problem. You can bump the idle up slightly if it really irritates you. I have over 9,000 miles on my clutches just keep blowing them clean with compressed air and change the spring occasionally. They had a update on some of the 3 cylinder Yamaha's where they put in some shims to quiet down the rattle but not on the 4 cylinder sleds that I know of.

Yes - I sometimes get an annoying buzzing sound from the gauge area. Just go faster!

Mine was at the radiator above the right footwell
Mine vibrates a little at the very front tip of the sled, behind the front bumper, where the lower plastic body panels come together.

Put a piece of 1/4" stick foam around the front of the bar that the hood latches on to at the front. My Apex had a vibration and that seemed to help. I had to fix it immediately after giving my buddy so much crap about his Cat rattling my fillings out.
