Was riding with some friends a few months back and one guy's shock broke and his bike ended up looking just like that.  Looks like a drag bike to me.

My KX looked like that when the top shock bolt vibrated out! So when you put it back together be sure to locktite the top mounting bolt or better yet drill it and safety wire it! It is much cheaper than  New seat cover, new side cover, new pipe mounts and maybe a new pipe when it drops! That is what it cost me when mine came loose! :x :x :evil:
