XSR 900 MY2024 .. REAR SHOCK

people with XSR 2024 .. how to improve rear suspension ?? .. not happy with the general feel how rear suspension feels but not really understanding what triggers this feel, I took it to my mechanic for the first time (not dealership mechanic) and had him check, I did not expect him to say that the OEM unit is .. crap .. preload was almost at its limit .. I weigh 85 kg and rebound was two notches from hard .. so no margin really to improve .. my riding is far from fast and aggressive and generally do not ask too much from the bike .. but .. over bumps it somewhat wallows .. feels unsafe at lean angle over bumps .. my last ride is a Cagiva Raptor carbed 650 .. with a very well dialled in OEM set up ..

Much appreciated any advice on upgrades or alternative shocks .. my mechanic has mentioned throwing on a Maselli unit .. product from ex Mupo engineer .. any other ideas ?

Thanks
