If your 95kgs without riding gear on then you are likely too heavy for the stock rear spring.

The standard rear spring is 95nm which is about 550 lbs. The bike weighs 209 Kgs and you probably weigh over a hundred in gear. For arguements sake 309kgs total which is getting on for 680 lbs.

I weigh less than you and i run a 105nm rear spring which transformed the bike.
Your fork settings sound way to soft to me for someone of your weight and i wouldn't mind betting your bike is squating down at the back and not putting enough weight on the front. Hence you run it soft to try and use the travel which also means you might be getting a huge weight transfer when braking and throttle transistions which might account for your loose back end.

Deffo check you static and rider sag. If you need sufficient preload to get a good rider sag that you have very little static sag then you need a new spring.
They are about £35-40 i think from memory.
