You should just go on Ebay and grab one. They're actually pretty cheap if you're looking for an OEM stem.

I shall do that right now... I have an OEM one right now but it's bent and it's scraping my new plastics when I turn my bike so I need a new one

haha Its actually kinda funny,

I always thought 400ex stems were made with a bend in them at the top.

But they arent! haha.

I knew mine was bent when I bought it but I had old, cracked plastics. It needs a new stem, key, and some other small issues.

LMAO, yeah those things bend so damn easy it's insane. My OEM stem is currently bent a tiny bit from an accident I had trying to go up a hill that was just a little too steep the other month. I am thinking about just buying an aftermarket one this time since I've purchased numerous OEM stems and seem to bend them all. The thing is I really do not even ride that hard compared to other people.

Haha I hear you guys I had one rollover doing reverse rear break slam, throw into gear wheelies if you know what I mean, went too fast in reverse and flipped it back on me just a little bit and now to go straight you gotta turn to the right a bit. I didn't even notice but when someone else drives it they can't keep straight lol.

I think Im on #5, if the bike even so much as falls over going very slow and the bars catch the bars are fine..damn stem bends.
