You can do a 21 on the front no problem. I just picked up a 17x5.5 with a 200mm tire and a spare swing arm that I'm going to be messing around with this winter...I've never done it though. Just going to see what I can come up with myself.

*edit* Not for my Nightster

If you want to know what it looks like just look a 1200 Custom they have had a 21" front wheel since day 1. I've seen 18" on the back they look great, more rim less tire.
