Sure, I failed to mention other factors that may have effected it, fact is they have only just sprung to mind.
My bike has 48,000 miles on it, I purchased it at 44,000 miles
When I changed the filter, the oem filter had writing showing the mileage it was fitted. But it had 2 lots of mileages, which makes me think that it was fitted at 21,000 miles, then cleaned and refitted at 33,000.
Retrospectively, I would think this to be the major contributor - reused oem filter.
But who cares? Bike feels livelier and I don't need to look at the filter until I hit 100k on the mileage!
