I did the same, but it was when I first mocked up my dyna and didn't have my bracket built yet (my dyna wasn't the direct bolt-on side rail version). I just had the pressure clamp on at the front and when she started fine I decided to give it a test run. Successfully made it down the driveway in 2nd gear (it's 1/4 mile long....I'm in the country), but when I turned onto the highway and 'gunned' it, the muffler shot off the back like a rocket and went bouncing and rolling down the road.
Luckily, (a) it didn't roll under my rear tire causing an accident and (b) I bought 2 mufflers ($20 each...just because he had 2 and I knew somehow I'd screw one up) so I still had a good one to use that was still all nice and pretty.
Oh...and regarding the loud comment, YES, it was loud!
