Thanks for posting the picture.
The bike looks like a 1986 Olympic model for the Canadian market. It has the "Bicycles of Distinction" decal on the seat tube which I think was only on the 1986 model year.
Was the bicycle found in Canada? Do you have a picture of the serial number?
The serial number is the format of a Kawamura built frame. Giant frames had a "G" at the start of the date code and after the 1986 model year at the start of the serial number.
