Default Is it really that trailer park????

I just got my 1st Hog, 2013 StreetGlide that I plan to do some mods to. I want to go for the west coast feel as everyone near me in DC has 21in the front and 18in the rear. I would love to get a kick *** 23 or 26 in the front but damn do they cost $$$ for the wheel & the install. Is it really worth it and do I lose that much handle with going that big? More importantly is it protocol to them in pair or should I just get the big front and keep my stock rear rim/tire? If I plan to extend the saddle bags will anyone know I went the cheap route and didn't do the rear tire?

Thanks

We do not like doing larger than a 21" because of handling although it is rather popular to do so. We have a pic of a bike on our facebook customer bikes page we are putting together and you will see a bike that we did just the front tire.
