Dumb question for those of you with RR's that cut your tail

Well, I want to cut my tail down, but I have the trunk lock in the way..

What did y'all do? Do you just eliminate it and have no lock on your trunk or what? How do you keep the trunk closed? I'd like to keep my trunk because I ride on the street a lot

Take the center part with the key out, there is still a lever to open the trunk, then buy scratched tail sides on ebay and cut those down. When you want the full tail again just put your stock parts back. I even have a scratched yellow 98 and a 99 side panel I would sell cheap.

the bar doesn't stick out too far like that? I had a bar on mine for like a day, and with the bar positioned with JUST enough room for my foot to fit between it and the lock.. the bar stuck out way too far
