Hot glue will seal something. So will silicone.
My ass is too cheap to use marine grade. Especially for the amount of connections I make on my property for Christmas. Never had an issue with snow or rain.
For a street motorcycle (dirt riders need not apply since they have stream crossing that could be an issue), you are looking more for a barrier than a sealant. Water can intrude as long as it doesn't bridge any connections ie: standing water and such that boats have to worry about. And you also aren't as worried about contaminants like salt from salt water rusting shit, so tape would also work fine for street moto applications.
We are talking about the TE though, so seal it.
