From Chris Harris's FB page, Bruno is well respected in the community and could use some help :2thumbup: :
-
I have two old Shoei helmets - Multitec and Duotec - one of which can be donated if required. They are both size L (59-60) which may be too large but who knows. How do I get this information to Bruno? I don't have a facebook account so can't post. Can someone relay?
-
you can probably contact him at the address in this link, thanks for the offer! http://motorbikes.forumsee.com/a/m/s/p12-32165-0560289--bruno-s-machine-and-repair.html

A lot of helmet lines use the same shell for several sizes. It's possible that by installing liner parts for the medium helmet the Large size can be changed to a Medium. Maybe a few members can kick in a few bucks to get liner parts if they can be swapped into Rob's helmet.

Aren't you going to be passing thhrough Bruno's neck-o-the-woods?
-
Might be. Anybody have a map that shows where he is located? I'm not sure I really want to stop by. Maybe it was his illness, but my impression of Bruno is that he is reclusive and not terribly fond of meeting people.
Chris Harris seems to be the only person I know of who has actually had a conversation with Bruno.
I'd be willing to take a helmet up there if someone can actually contact Bruno. I could pick up the helmet on my way up north on Thursday. I think I will be near Burlington around 9:30-10 am.

According to Shoei's website, one shell size is used for small and extra-small helmets. The large shell is dedicated to large size only. Bringing a large shell down to a small size is not feasible and a waste of effort.
Somebody here probably has an Arai or Shoei small helmet they can donate. Come forth!

Iron Bridge (the town) is on the Trans Canada Hwy, about 75 miles this side of The Sault. IIRC from conversations with buddy Bill (R-bike guy) Bruno has a 'farm' not too far out of town. I could ask Bill how approachable is Bruno ...

In July I tracked Bruno down for a recommendation of someone to fix my stripped splines while he was out of action. Long story short, Bruno took pity on me. I sent him my driveshaft and final drive and he replace the pinion gear and bearing in the final drive and welded a new spline collar onto the driveshaft. The poor guy could only work for short periods and has no assistant up there for heavy lifting. I got it all back in perfect shape and am grateful to him. I got OEM parts which he had on hand, rather than the Bruno Special: elongated pinion spline and driveshaft with a seal to keep lubricant from running away into its hollow interior.
I hope Bruno recovers fully and returns to assisting the Brick community ASAP. He is a very nice man.
