About the Honda VT750DCB Shadow Spirit
Shadow Spirit DCB identification, with the 2004 gap kept visible.
In Honda’s 2003 catalog, VT750DCB3 is a Shadow Spirit D variant; VT750CDB3 is a Deluxe ACE entry. The order of the letters matters. If the label reads VT750CDB, use the VT750CDB A.C.E. Deluxe guide; DCB and CDB are different model codes. Use the complete code from the motorcycle and its original market, especially if the tank or covers have been replaced.
Match the electrical component and its connections
The selected 2003 ignition coil carries Honda reference 30510-MCC-003. Match the coil marking, connectors, mounting spacing and plug-lead arrangement before buying. The starter terminal boot, reference 32411-230-000, is a protective rubber component and is not a starter motor or relay. Neither product should be chosen merely because another DCB part lists a nearby year.
