I don't remember reading anything about a reverse ArcadeVGA board. I have a feeling that the only option to you is to get a replacement arcade monitor. Another option is to MAME it and put the motorcycle games on it. This way you would be able to sell the board set to help pay for the project. The only real issues that I see are the size of the monitor space and interfacing the controls. It looks like was a 24" or 27" so getting a monitor/TV to fit there properly could cost a bit as well. Though it would be cheaper than an arcade monitor. I think that Ultimarc might have the interfaces for you but I am not sure. The handlebars are more than likely on a pot.

There's no reasonable way to output from a gameboard to a computer monitor. You could use a JROK, to output to a TV, but the picture quality won't be as good.
But really, you'll want a real arcade monitor.

But since I don't have any direct experience with JAMMA equipment, I wasn't going to make any assumptions about what is or isn't JAMMA unless I verify it.

SEGA didn't produce much JAMMA stuff at all.... This is certainly a dedicated machine. Much like their other stuff from this period.
After this they went on to further develop the boards in your machine into the SEGA NAOMI System... House Of The Dead... Virtua Striker.. Virtua Tennis.. Virtua Cop... 18 wheeler... etc etc etc... All effectively dedicated machines because although the NAOMI ROM boards could be swapped the machines all had pretty dedicated control designs.

Found pinouts over at CrazyKong.com

They also have the manual and schematic PDFs you might want to check out.
Hang-On was pretty cool but I'm not sure it would be a great long-term game. It would still LOOK cool, though. All-in-all, as long as you can find the parts and the board works, doesn't look like a very hard restoration.
I'm not sure how it would work out as a MAME cab. I guess it could just be an unconventional racing cab. You might be able to swap the handlebars for a wheel and add pedals. Maybe.
