Nice Bike! I like the Miyata bikes, especially the touring models. The geometry is a bit more relaxed as compared to the street bikes, probably about 72 degree seat angle. That makes these bikes a bit more comfortable to ride the longer distances, especially if you have a longer upper body and shorter inseam length. I have an '89 Miyata 1000LT ( Luxe Tour ) that is a dream to ride. Your bike is still valuable and looks to be in good condition. If the components have been maintained and are in good condition, depending on the market and your location, the bike could fetch you in the $500 plus range if you decide to turn it over for a profit. Great find and enjoy it if you do any updates and ride it yourself!
