Default M50 engine noise?

This is my first street bike and I am not sure what noises are normal and what are noises are not. I am getting a ticking sound coming from the engine that I did not notice the first couple of times that I rode it. I am not sure if I did not notice the noise because it was my first bike and I was focused on other things and now that I am more relaxed I am just starting to pick up on all the little noises. I also fill an engine vibration starting around 60 MPH. I am also not sure if it was there before and I just did not notice it, or if it is something new. I would appreciate any advice I could get. Thanks
