I guess if I were in your shoes, it'd be one of those things where I wouldn't talk of it unless he started talking of it. But that's largely because it wouldn't bother me and is a characteristic that really has no particular place/ranking in any of my friendships. I'd be just as equally unlikely to say "Hey, I heard you were bi. Is that true?" as I would be "Hey, I heard you were heterosexual. Is that true?" But if he ever wants to talk about it, be there and listen, share your thoughts and offer your support.
The only time I have talked to a friend about their sexuality was when a female friend of mine with whom I went to high school first realized she was bi and wasn't sure how to handle it, so she confided in me and we discussed the various ways it impacted her life, the positives and negatives of it, her moral dilemmas (her being raised a catholic), etc. I was the second person she told and so she was still looking to see how those people close to her might react to the info. She was still very unsure of herself. Happy to report that nowadays, she's plenty proud and comfortable of her sexual orientation.
