I have an alloy muffler for my RM400 that i want to re-use however the core is shagged. Does anyone know where i can get perforated tube, 25mm or thereabouts, in stock lengths?

Have been to 1/2 dozen exhaust shops and the smallest that they can supply is 30mm then go up from there. I guess that a 4 stroke rider has no problems getting pipe, but not a 2 stroke, thus far.
