I had the same buzz and here is what I personally found.

That sound sounded just like the reverse lockout in in my shifter. I have seen a few threads try to explain it, that it's a washer etc, but after much trail and error, I found where mine was really coming from. The shifter is hollow, and has a plastic rod in the middle of it for the reverse lockout. Once you get to a RPM with which makes a resident frequency to that matches the plastic or leaver, it goes nuts and rattles against the side walls.

To reduce the to almost nothing, I stuffed that shaft full of a thick grease. The rattle is now almost completely gone.
Welcome and thanks for the hint -
