When I lived in London 20 years ago I enjoyed riding about on my 750 Bonnie - though it would overheat (they need the aftermarket oil cooler, not having enough capacity in the oil-in-frame kludge). However, if you mean 'eye watering' literally, yes, I agree. One time I was stuck in traffic at Hyde Park Corner and my eyes were stinging so much I took the first opportunity to turn off and go back home and didn't get comfortable until I could open it up around about St. John's Wood. That's when it stopped being fun.

Is it grass or tree pollen that’s issue here?

Exhaust from buses in summer. The grass was never a problem, though by then I called it weed.

In the 80's it really wasn't too bad. There were traffic jams and hassles. But on a sunny day buzzing around in a Midget with the roof down, driving by all the famous sites was something to be enjoyed.

Agree - many happy memories - mates had Sunbeam Alpine, frog-eye Sprite etc.
