Yup, its a 1988.
HOW did you ever find that beautiful bike in our neck of the woods. IMHO, Your bike has one of the nicest paint schemes Nishiki used. I've searched CL, yard sales and thrift shops for three years. The best I could do is the 87 Custom Sport I posted earlier. You must live right!
Please do me one favor, check your Tange seat tube decal and confirm that it says Tange 900. Thanks.
