21" wheel

You'll get a harsher ride too. I went from the 21 to a 19 on a WG and there was a noticable difference.
 
I have a 21" wheel on my 09 SG w/abs and the only significant difference that I feel is lighter steering. The ride is not harsher. It does seem to drift a little bit to the left, but I'm not sure if its because the drive train is on the left side and the front end a little higher with the bigger wheel. But other than that, there are no ill effects and it still rides great!
 
I am wanting to put a 21" wheel on my '09 Street Glide, will the effect the handeling of my bike?

YES, by noticing all the onlookers admiring the new 21" wheel ya dressed your ride up with!

yes it will the narrower tire will tend to follow smaller ruts and groves in the road some say it makes front end feel lighter

This is true, I recently changed to a 408F from the original 407F and the grove effects are way less and it is quiet FYI.
