Stiff suspension Street Triple 675

Stiff suspension Street Triple 675

I recently purchased a 2014 Street Triple 675 non R, and the suspension is very hard, I can feel every little bump on the road, not sure that’s expected, considering my limited biking experience. I suspect it’s partially due to me being too lightweight at 70kg (154lb), there is almost no sag when I sit on the bike, 1cm maybe. For reference, I don’t do track and I am looking for a bit more comfort.

I was considering a rear suspension upgrade, I hear the shock from the R model is adjustable and is a straight swap, prices are reasonable on the used market as well. Would the adjustability make for a softer experience over small road imperfections?

If anyone can point me at the right direction at a cost effective price, please let me know
