The S83 bars will fit, but you may also need S83 risers as well to have the switch boxes clear the tank.

If your '02 had internal wiring, you will need to drill the bars for the wires or notch your switch boxes to let the wires exit externally.
If was all external on the '02, just switch the bars and risers.

The 02 didn't have internal wiring [emoji2] For the Drag bars you will need new risers as well as the bars or the bars will hit the tank. The flat bars on the 05 & up Boulevards are too narrow so don't look for those. That means find a set of risers from an 05 or newer model & then look for an aftermarket set of drag bars. If they are too wide you will also need new brake & clutch lines. I switched mine out to a wider bar & have just enough line to have them work
