Spring weights go higher than that. Hyperpro springs are better than standard but still might not be quite enough for you.
I've developed a cheaper solution - XJR1300 fork springs. Same 43mm diameter forks but on a heavier bike (so heavier springs to compensate). I've got a pair of Ohlins XJR springs that are claimed to be a further 10-15% stiffer than standard so would probably be ideal for around your weight.
Thinner oil & 10ml more than standard amount might be better than thicker gloop for going over small bumps & tarmac ridges
