being a BMW motorcycle mechanic many years back, spring wave washers are used where steel bolts are holding alloy parts together,, correct torque values applied (gutentite) thermal cycling, different expansion and all that,, specific drive train bolts were one time use, (stretch bolts) the u-joint to gearbox flange (steel to steel) went through changes as time progressed,, originally split hardened lockwashers, then changed to thick wave washers, then to single use bolts, no washers,installed on clean parts with loctite.. on later bikes some specific bolts came pre-locktited,, heat was required for removal,, the new bolt had a locktite coating on part of the threads, friction activated(once started the bolt was cranked down without stopping,)
