Proceeding from the theory of perturbations, the effect of disk bends and radial flows on the dynamo in a thin disk has been considered. Taking the Galaxy and the spiral galaxies M51 and M81 as an example, it has been established that the role of both factors is not great. The weak influence of the radial flows is explained by the character of their dependence on the radius. The role of the disk bends mainly reduces to an effective change of the rotation curve.
