where did my mpg go?

Last summer I was getting 48-50 mpg. Now I'm down to the low 40's. Over the winter I replaced the doohickey and adjusted the valves but I wouldn't think that either of those procedures would effect mileage. I also replaced the stock dunlops with kenda 270's. Do you think knobbies could make that much difference? Dave A9, University Place, WA
