Miles Per Gallon

I filled up the other day and was only able to put 26gal in the tank. The mileage read 495. Thought that was pretty good. Got home and figured it out to just over 19 miles per gallon. Happy, happy, happy. The only mods I have are straight exhaust and a BHAF. The pipe size is the same as the stock without the muffler or cat. Most of this is in town driving. The drive to work is 11.3 miles with the normal weekly stuff mixed in. I just replaced the exhaust 2 weeks ago
