WTB: Nice Japanese bike, 56ish

Hi everyone. Once again, I’m searching for a clean Japanese road bike around 56 to 58cm from the late 70s / early 80s. Miyata, centurion, Lotus, etc. Maybe something more high end? I love Suntour but I'm open. What ya got?

I have a Kabuki DFD that I have posted up on the forum for sale. It's right around 57cm c-t-c, full chrome if that look is for you.

Curious about this one, although the master wasn't introduced until 1987.

gravelinmygears I have a nice 1983 Lotus Legend. Paint is really really good. the first owner "upgraded it" to 8 speed indexed shifting in the early 1990's but I can switch it over to somethng like Shimono 600 (6400 I think). Superbe brakes and hubs. I'm in the $400 range plus shipping. I added some new conti tires and new cool stop pads. My Lotus Thread
