if traffic is crawling along, over tower bridge behind a sightseeing bus, then taking primary is the slower option.
Despite a couple of hand gestures and shouts recently, I find most motorcyclists will give and take with filtering space. If there is space on their side they'll pull in a bit to allow you to pass, and I do the same if there's space on my side.
There is not a lot of space to the left or right. To the left there is the kerb and railings and to the right oncoming motorbikes/*cyclists (*rare)/vehicles pulling over into the middle to overtake left filtering cyclists. Probably best to take primary ?
