The stock stem from my '97 750 is very nice, and I think you'd like it if you could find one on eBay. It's anodized silver with a front cap. I don't have a very good picture of it, but you can see most of it in the picture below. It's a 22.2mm quill stem with a recessed top bolt...very classy in my opinion.

Having said that...I guess if you converted to drops, you'd need one with a 26.0mm clamp...or does your bar have a 25.4mm clamp size? The stock stem would have a 25.4mm clamp size...so it may or may not work.
