Default 2008 FLSTN Front tire questions

What would be the consequences of a narrower (than stock) front tire on an '08 Deluxe? How would it handle compared to the stock tire - MT90B16?

What would the differences be going to a larger front wheel and narrower tire?

Thanks in advance!

your bike will handle better with a narrow front tire. i have a 3" front and a 90/90/21 tire and you can tell a difference in turning. also feels better on the freeway
