 Bullet 500 UCE, Bullet 350 UCE (KS & ES) and Electra 350 UCE (ES), giving us clean, model-level fitment for the UCE generation., Walmart/SE Auto World) advertise 145989/B as the original Electra 350 / Bullet 350–500 handlebar, often called “Electra Refresh handlebar”, and highlight its comfortable, slightly higher bend vs older Standard bars.

145989 as a plated (chrome) refresh handlebar for old & new Bullet models (1980–2020), but since those claims are broad, this listing only guarantees UCE fitment where at least two independent sources agree.

If your stock Electra/Bullet bar is bent, rusted, or uncomfortable, 145989/B is the correct OE replacement to restore factory ergonomics, switch/harness drilling and bar-end weight mounting – without any jugaad.

⚠️ Not for J-Series (new Classic/Bullet 350, Hunter, Meteor), Himalayan 411/450, 650 Twins, or Scram/Guerrilla platforms.
