Italian term or phrase: angoli di piega
The phrase I'm trying to translate is extremely technical. It is referred to the distinctive features of a motorcycle.
Here's the whole sentence: L’elevata luce a terra permette angoli di piega mozzafiato.

lean angle


Explanation:
http://www.ducati.ru/share/pdf/2007/MonsterSR_07.pdf

Increased ground clearance enables extreme
lean angles and helps exploit the full
capabilities of the S4R, a thoroughly modern
bike created to fully experience the thrills
of sports riding.

Il Paralever EVO BMW Motorrad svolge due
funzioni: sospensione della ruota posteriore
e trasmissione della potenza. Per aumentare
la luce da terra la barra del Paralever è
collocata sopra al monobraccio oscillante
(senza fig.)

La luce da terra è l'altezza del telaio da terra--ground clearance
