The 21" will make a difference, I don't think the number of spokes would be something you could feel. I think you can get a Agitator from puzzled on this site. I have a 80 spoke 21" on my CUSE4 and love the way it rides!  :bananarock:

A 21 will possibly degrade handling noticeably with a passenger and tourpak. I put around 50k on one on a street glide. Lowering the front 2" and longer shocks on back helped but the geometry difference is still felt. Also wanted to wobble when applying power in curves, not fun. Looked awesome but I got tired of the PMS.

Run a 21 on my fatboy with a one inch lowered front end with Progressive mono tubes.  Rides and handles better than stock.

Think about a 21 or 23 on my King

If I install a 21" front wheel on my 09 SERG will I need to RAISE the front fender? Something I was told and it didn't sound right...

Thanks...

That may be right. The SERG somewhere along the lines changed the front fender to a "Slammed" fender which will need to be lifted up to clear a 21". I don't know what year the fender was changed from the standard FL fender.
