Default Seat Vibration - Normal?

I have about 2200 miles on my M50 and have noticed my bottom gets rather numb feeling after 30 minutes or so, my passengers also have this complaint. I thought it was just the factory seat but after a short ride yesterday I'm not so sure. I reached back and laid my hand on the passenger seat and it is buzzing/vibrating quite harshly. The bike seems smooth on the road but this buzzing/vibrating that is being produced appears to be the source of discomfort more than the seat itself. Any suggestions on what may be causing this? Is this just normal for this bike? Thanks for your help. This seems to come into play at 55 mph and above
