Nitto makes some bars like that:

Classic Road Bar


or for a little more flare, the Randonneur Bar:

Both of these use a 25.4mm bar clamp, so you'd need a new stem.

Personally, I really the Sals Bell Lap bars, but part of that is that I like the ergo bend. I was against the look of it at first, but I like the way it fits my hand. While I disliked the mounting bulge of the stock bars on my '08 Jake, I don't mind the bars themselves.
