Default ENGINE NOISE

While riding my 94 Dyna @ about 70 mph, it very suddenly began a loud clanging (not knocking) noise and began to backfire. This lasted about 10 seconds and then when I slowed to about 45-50, it stopped and ran fine till I got it home. I have not attempted to start it yet again. Any ideas on what may have broken?
