Default 23" vs 21" front wheel

Does anybody have experience with a 23" front wheel on a road king. I've got a 2014 I'm going to upgrade to 21, but the more I think about it (and see pictures of) I'm wondering if maybe a 23 might be better. My understanding is the 21" doesn't have much performance difference from the 19. But not sure about the 23.

Any input appreciated

Bruce

I have a 21" on my '13 Road King and can get away with using the stock fender. If you go 23" I know you'll need a custom fender. With the ride, I don't notice a difference after riding for a few hundred miles on my 21". I imagine it'd be the same with a 23".
