Yes. I think it's the one the 700 uses, but Jay has one. He can tell you for sure.

Both the Arkel Catrike "Trail" and "Expedition" bags fit the Musashi. The Expedition bags completely fill the rear frame triangle, while the Trail bags only partially fill them. I have the Trail bags installed on my Musashi, and they provide plenty of storage for tools, small Camelbak, wallet, phone, etc.

Lead presents a health hazard. Could you make it 20 lbs. of 99% silver?

You've been hangin' round the hunt boys? I'll just have to see what junk gold I've got lying around. I mean ya would'nt want too much wear and tear on them bags.
