This is the wrong question to ask, actually. You should be more concerned about the age that you should put a heifer in with a bull to be bred, not when should a heifer be taken away from a bull. See the related question below, but generally, a heifer should be at least 15 months of age to be bred and be able to grow a calf in her.
Now to really answer your question, the bull should be removed after a couple months of being in with the heifer[s].

How old does a Brahman bull have to be to service a heifer?
It should be a more of a concern of how much the bull weighs over his age. The bigger the bull, the more likely he'll cause injury to the heifer. Usually the older the bull is the bigger he'll be. Yearling bulls are best used for heifers, more often those that have EPDs for small calves. Brahmans are typically later maturing, so a two-year old bull may be old enough to service a heifer.

Don't do it if the bull's way too heavy for the heifer and you can't get semen from him sufficiently to AI her. Most herd bulls are mature beasts, but if he's a yearling or a small bull, then go right ahead, put her in with him.
