Looking for brake pads for 95 ace and thinking maybe going to the dealer or maybe online and what would be the best route to go --Honda--EBC--??

I would match the pads with the rotor. If you have the stock rotors, use the stock pads.

The rear pads are: 43105-MW0-415
The front pads are : 06455-MAH-405

Honda pads are hard to beat, EBC would be my second choice and price wise there really isn't all that much, if any, difference.

I agree. If I still had the stock caliper on the front I'd go Honda OEM. They are great pads.

For what it's worth you could use OEM pads with any disk, EBC CTA saying that if any pads other than EBC's are used the warranty is null and void,,,,also with them saying that it makes for some good sales for there pads

It's not the disk, on my bike it's the brake caliper. I have a Performance Machine 4 piston caliper on my bike. The best pads I got for it were Braking Kevlar pads, but I have to use EBCs now because Braking no longer makes the Kevlars.
