The OE shock is OK but generally doesn't last long as yes the spring is only suitable for lightweights. 
So for most people by 6 - 10 thousand miles the shock is done.

Firms like K-Tech can overhaul it (new seals and re-gas?) and can advise on a suitable spring.  I got the full K-Tech upgrade (no longer available) and a shock suitable for a 14 stone rider.  I weighed myself fully kitted and rounded up.

The difference was amazing.
