From the catalogs, it looks like you've got a 1987 Palisade. If that's the case, it's a nice bike with quad butted, Valite tubing. Probably lower mid level or upper entry level. If I'm correct, it has Suntour index shifters on the downtube. I would leave them right where they are. I'd tune up the bike and ride it. We'd have to see a pic of your Schwinn World Sport to comment as to which is the better bike. For now, I'd go with the Fuji over the Schwinn. As for the Raleigh, since you didn't say which model it is, it's not possible to determine which bike has the nicer frame.
