Default 21" vs 19"

I know that this is 100% opinionated, but i'd love to here what you guys think. Who thinks I should keep my 21" spoke wheel and who thinks I should get rid of it for a 19"?

What about your 21" do you not like, if anything? Looks fine to me!

IMO Keep 21 and add "sissy" bar.

My spoked 21" was just spooky!
It handled soo bad I wanted to get rid of the bike!
The tire shop told me my front tire had the old thread pattern, with the center groove.
They put a new tire on with no center groove and now it handles perfect.
Luv my 21" now.
