The DB7's use the same Zadi blank keys as per Modern Ducatis, I got mine from a Ducati Dealer, around 12 GBP, dont ask for the red transponder one or even a transponder one, with electronic chips in them, as they are over 20 GBP a piece and not needed for Bimotas as they have no immobilisers.

Ducati Manchester in Sale, Manchester got me mine on order, took me about a week, take your key, or scan and email picture to a Ducati dealer and he'll recognise it straight away.

DONT get any of the ones on this listing here

They should have a flat point, or rather no point, and the grooves dont go far enough down the shaft to locate properly once they are cut, so dont work. Once you've got a blank then you can take it to any Key maker to cut from your original (if you have one) Evidently it won't say Bimota on the rubber moulding but will work...How do I know all this?? I tried several times at my local Locksmiths until I got one from Ducati and they cut it, worked a treat Laughing
