Hard to tell, tho mine had a red spring. The threaded bit is the preload adjustment.

not standard IMO.

The preload on a std shock is a ramped kind of affair. That is a toothed pair of lock rings. Looks like a standard reservoir though - or std for another bike.

89 shocks are ramped, 90 on are lock ringed like the picture.
