<input type="checkbox" name="vehicle" value="Bike" id="vehicle" />
<label for="vehicle" id="lblVehicle"></label><br />
<script>
var lblBike = 'I have a bike';
document.getElementById('lblVehicle').innerHTML = lblBike;
</script>

var yourTextVariable = 'I have a cool bike';
document.getElementById('vehicle').innerHTML = yourTextVariable;
