No fork preload adjuster, why?

I presently have a 2016 KTM 690 Duke R and may get a 2018 1290 Super Duke R soon (I had a 08 SDR). Both bikes do not have fork preload adjusters, why? A friend told me it's because the WP forks have a progressive rate spring installed but I'm not sure that is true. Anyone have some insight on this subject?
