Hey everyone! Have recently gotten hold of a Manx TT cabinet which has been totally gutted. The bikes and the actual cabinets though are in fair shape. Has anyone on here know of or converted themselves one of these old beasts to PC ? I have wet dreams of using them to play motogp 2020 or isle of man2

Not an easy job as its based on model 2a boards but if your good with electronics it shouldn't be to hard to figure out the circuitry and wire it up.
If I recall the bikes do have some sort of motor in them that aids with the tilt of the bike that absolutely requires power and honestly is probably going to the most difficult part ( providing it even still works).
At the end of the day though its just like an steering device and I doubt given the age its going to be analogue. Pretty sure its all direct inputs even the accelerator.
You didn't say if you had the screens or not, but if you have i would just bin them as they would be a huge liability. You may have to get a specialist to take them out if thats the case.
