Default Mileage vs gas prices - What do you get?

With the rising cost of fuel I am getting concerned with the mileage I'm getting with my SG. I have SE slipons, stage 1 air filter, SERT and the bike has been Dyno tuned. I get 33 mpg around town and 37 highway. Does this seem a bit low? What kind of mileage are most getting?
BTW, my air/fuel ratio is a flat 13.6 accross the board. Is this too rich?
Let me hear from you.

41mpg @ 60-70 mph.....average acceleration......95" / TW-6G / SE Slipons / SERT but has not been dynoed yet. Frank, to me your gas mileage seems very low.....there's gotta be a reason.
