There isn't much info out there for this brand. They made some nice bikes, but never were as popular as Bridgestone, Miyata, Nishiki, Panasonic, etc. My RX-7 is mid eighties era. Your bike would be late 1980's per the decal font. Go over to vintage-trek.com and you can date the bike using the components from it there.

The OP's bike has those goofy looking Olympic-ish symbols on the top tube, perhaps to lure in triathletes on a budget.
Thanks for the info. I have never seen anything other than the RX series. I owned a couple RX-3s.
