    100/90-19 are readily available, will give more grip than the skinny 21".
    The front end drop will be less than 3/4" because the tyre is fatter, but will give sharper steering and slightly quicker "turn-in".
    You'll notice the improvement when you are used to it and go for the first dry, traffic-free roundabout: in and out quicker
