SUBJECT
PROBLEM
The following is a modification to Sega Hang On
and Super Hang On that I have found to be
extremely reliable.
Brake cables constantly breaking and wearing
out. I have noticed that some operators simply
remove the brake handle assembly completely. I
have found that this deteriorates the control of
the game and the ability of the player to register
their name or select the options of play.
