Ride by his Daytona dealership everyday on the way to work and stop in often. A class act all the way. An ICON in this area and the HD Nation. He will truly be missed. RIP Mr. Bruce.

RIP old friend....

You can't live and ride in Ormond and Daytona like I did for 15 years and not know Bruce.... He could be gruff, but he always be counted on to take care of the community and the riders...... that's why he left Daytona and moved to Ormond... for the riders...
