You're kinda new around here, aren't you?

Theres 2 versions of carburetor available for a 95 from what I can tell, a C41 and C51 (13200-24xxx) does it matter?  They are the same price.

 I try to keep 2 or 3 of each part around for repairs or screwing with.  Do you need one?

 Also do you know which one goes on a 95?

I don't know much but a properly tuned S40 will get 50 plus mpg if not ridden in a brutal fashion. I get in the high 50s with mine around town ridden within the speed limits.

If somebody can drive it down into the 30s I have no concept of how that can be. Obviously I am no GP racer. :'(

I'm currently in the same situation but got only 57 mpg  
But good to know, I was a bit worried if it's running a bit lean.

  Some people are just more concerned about my money than I am, so much so they need to keep bringing it up instead of answering questions.  I don't know why it matters, I'm not asking anyone here for a loan.

 From what I understand I cant tune a carb with my current exhaust so that's not an option until I get a new one.  I've bought a Dyna and two stock exhausts to try out later.

I'd suggest you get the exhaust swapped to a Known Quantity first. Then what to do with the carb won't be a complete guessing game. There are guys here who can look at your elevation and have a good Starting point for what jets to try if you have a common exhaust. No telling what jets are in it. But dropping the bowl makes it easy enuff.
You can swap jets, IF they aren't stuck. And If you can get the bowl bolts loose. If nobody has busted them out in the last few years they can get stuck pretty good. Common move there is replace them with SS Allen heads. And use antisieze. I kept the stock bolts and used antisieze..
I'm surprised at the low top speed..with such fuel usage.
Swapping out the carb is a good bit more hassle than it looks like. I'd be looking inside at the jets first. And for sure get an exhaust system on it that is a proven winner.

Yep, I mark the speedometer glass with a China Marker from Hobby Lobby. Stays on through everything but a scrubbing. At around 100 miles I'm looking for gas.
My riding and the windshield and bags delivers upper to mid forties depending on the wind. It's not uncommon to look down and see 70 indicated.. And that's around 76 in real MPH, I try to not be running it that way,, I just can't help myself..
