They don’t come with the ability to transmit outside the ham bands from Yaesu or Icom. Somebody has modified them. It’s known as the MARS or CAP mod.

Perhaps it’s a regional thing. It is quite the wilde west where I’m from after all.
For the Yaesu FT-2900R, I indeed acquired this second hand, but I also got myself a new old stock FT-60R that seems to be able to transmit outside the HAM band for both 2m and 70cm out-of-box.
