To set the timing on a 1979 Shovelhead 1200cc, first, ensure the engine is at top dead center (TDC) on the compression stroke for the front cylinder. Remove the timing cover and locate the timing marks on the flywheel; align the mark with the pointer. Next, loosen the distributor clamp and rotate the distributor until the points just begin to open, then tighten the clamp to secure the distributor in place. Finally, check the timing with a timing light to ensure it's set correctly according to specifications.
