Hello all, just thought i would comment on this topic after sourcing new blanks for an existing key (the rounded ignition type and the seat lock). I had great feedback and help from a company in Australia , who identified the key as their key blank number #253

well here's a copy of my invoice for 2 ignition blanks and 2 seat lock key blanks.

2 of #253 GT5BP @ 4.95
2 of #325 MER1@ 3.50
Shipping 2.95
TOTAL US$19.85

Hope this helps someone...

Have also dealt with Keys for Classics, very good people. Early '91 907 used left over 906 tumblers, which used very slightly different blank, when told wouldn't work, he immediatey sent the right ones at no charge. Also believe if you can send him the code numbers[on back?] he will cut for small fee. Believe he is running pair of key blanks on Ebay now.[$6.95 plus shipping?]

Further on Keys 4 Classics, their blank code for:
906/early 907 SILKA ZD14RP
Later 907 SILKA ZD16RP

My early 907[00920] took 906 blank.

Does anyone know where the lock number is on a petrol tank cap???... i have one and provided all the numbers present on the bottom of the cap to the keys4classics guys and they said none of them matched anything they had on record.

So, anyone got any ideas?

If you go to Their Ebay listing for key cutting, they list many places where you may or may not find the code. including as last resort removing the tumbler.

I'm not so sure the tank needs a key cut to the same specs as the ignition? It wouldn't surprise me if any Paso key opened any Paso tank... but I'm just guessing.

If that is the case, there'd be no reason to have a code on the tank lock.

As with most ducati's getting one key to open all locks is not something they did... the ignition key is about 3x larger than the hole for the tank cap keyhole.

However i am not sure that the 750 paso ever had a locking tank cap originally, but it is the same size as the 906 and 907ie so it could very probably be one of these.

As for serial numbers none of those on the cap matched anything, and getting the lock out of the cap looked to be extremely hard. so I will use the standard cap that i have until something miraculous hapens to provide an answer.

thanks anyway guys

Sorry, hadn't realized this thread had morphed into tank key. All Keys 4 Classics info on key codes is for ignition. BTW my 907 came with non lockable tank cap.

My '89 906 does not have a locking fuel cap. The keys for ignition & to lock the seat are different also.
