Evidently lots out there, quite staggering how many breakers list the second hand stuff at the same price of a new one, circa 40squid. Measure what length of cable you think you would need though Oily, with enough slack so that it doesn't get tight and snap when forks are at full extension, or when manouevring the bike around, as I say new cables from Ducati (in stock) are only 9.99 and probably cheaper than second hand also
You will find that Doocati "nuts" are just that, they'll pay a premium for 2nd hand stuff jumping on ebay first before trying their local dealer to see if they are cheaper than old stuff
You could also try the following:-
Ducati Coventry 024 7633 5300
or
Baines Racing 01327 858885
Or
Mdina Italia at mdinaitalia.co.uk or on 0845 680 9005
I have cables lying around but are for the pup, they are generally 27inches or 69cms in new money, but I had to cobble 2 together to get the right ends and the right length, as under hard acceleration uphill the cable would reach its limit on its original length and the outer casing would pull away from the innner, losing the speedo |

Well theres always Duc Mcr also who have stock as I said, and they'll post out also, their number is 01619739572, check your length and whether small and small ferruled ends or small at drive side and large at clocks, and they'll dig a drive cable out of their box also |
