Slip on = increased fuel consumption?

Love my Blackwidow slip on only (stick headers). Fitted at around 10 k miles, now at 12+k miles. 
cant help notice that am pouring more fuel into my tanks (World Raid) at refuels. 
i normally fuel up at around 280miles and it used to take around 18-19 litres to full. 
i am now putting 21 Litres plus consecutively. 
 

question is, would a slip on like blackwidow increase fuel consumption? 
it doesnt bother me but just curious. 
thanks

If it sounds better and you end up running the bike harder, that would be no surprise.  🤣

I searched for ages for "stick headers" thinking some new slang had slipped past me.
