Bagman used a conventional horizontal shelf mount monitor mounted vertically. I believe they were originally shipped with Wells-Gardner k4900 series monitors.

I'm not sure about this, but it's possible that Bagman had POSITIVE sync instead of the normal negative sync.  You might try using the positive sync inputs on the monitor to see if it makes a difference.

Best,

There is usually a 2nd set of sync inputs.  It depends on your monitor.
If the board syncs in the Bad Dudes cab, maybe your other cabs don't have a good video ground?   I'm just guessing here, since I don't know what monitor your using, or how they are wired.

You're restoring a bagman?   That's great, I haven't been able to find one since the only one I saw about 18 years ago in a laundromat my folks owned.  Damn, too bad I didn't have them keep the games before they sold the joint.  Good luck, send a pic when it's complete if you don't mind.
