Hi folks, one of my friendly neighbors found a Ducati key laying around the development and was nice enough to leave it by my door as he has noticed me working on my Monster a couple of times. Thing is this key isn't mine, so if any1 has recently lost a Ducati key or knows any1 who has, let me know!

Well I had figured I'd ask that to whoever said it was theirs as a means of making sure its their but whatever  ;D
it's an old style key.

The yahoos at the shop lost mine (and replaced it).  [bang]

Any chance it looks like this:
'07 S2R1K
'09 Daytona 675

Sorry not it. Here's a terrible phone pic, pardon the quality...

is there a number at the top of the key?  on the metal, right next to the black plastic?

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

errr, ah, no number on either side. I tried to take a better pic, emphasis on "tried".

IIRC on that generation of key, if there is no number at the top then it's a copy they had made at the dealer. 

my original factory keys on my SS bikes have a lock code at the top.

It's a pretty big deal that you found him.  Better yet that you tried.

Return of lost property is a big mitzvah.

Thanks, actually he turned out to be my neighbor too (had just brought his 748 out from storage). I told him I had dibs on that thing when he decides to sell it, she'd make a nice bigger sister for my Monster   assuming I can tippy toe it ;D
